Great video, Josh! I just had the same thing happen on the hood of my 2021 Mazda6. Sat out in the sun too long, and I didn't catch it in time. I tried Koch Chemie Micro Cut with the corresponding pad, and while it made it better, it didn't eliminate it. Problem is, the paint thickness in that spot is 3.1 😳 Just don't feel comfortable bumping it up to a compound. Oh well, like you said, you have be looking for it to really see it anyway. Sure wish manufacturers weren't making the paint so THIN these days...

These are pro solutions and good ones at that...... however it was a long weekend, a massive amount of Bird crap landed on my car and I did not want to let it sit for days or a week feeling it may do further damage. I had a white car. (Not sure what the outcome would be for a dark paint car?). The chunky part of the poop I got off. Not issue there. What was left was light green stains literally that looking like ink or something. I tried soap and water and a sponge. No change. I tried Turtle wax and some buffing. Did not help at all. I tried Baking soda and water. Did not do anything. I tried Baking soda and vinegar. Nothing. I tried Goo B Gone. No change... no effect. NOTE I chose a small bird poo stain for all these down near the side front fender in the most inconspicuous spot to test all these. In case any of them left some damage or abrasive marks in the paint. I recommend the same. If the situation allows for that. Finally what worked? A mixture paste of Oxy Clean Powder mixed plain hot water. Not so hot that it burns your fingers. I mixed it to a wet version of a paste. I tried applying and rubbing the stains using make Up Remover pads (those white round ones).... I tried a cloth.... it seemed the best way to do it was using my plain old fingers. I would apply a dollop and simply firm but a gentle firm.... rub it with my thumb or fingertips around and over each poo splatter. The more you kept rubbing the fainter and fainter the stain got. It does take some elbow grease and time. It took me around 45 to 55 minutes to do around 35 - 40 splatters ranging from the size of a dime to the size of a pea. But they all came out. Every now and then I would mist the whole area with water. You do not want the paste dry or chunky.... nor too thin.... a little wetter than toothpaste consistency. After I rinsed and rubbed everything with a soft towel and you could see some of the areas where I rubbed with the oxyclean but I am sure a going over with a good car wax with hint of rubbing compound would even out the small few areas I could see a bit of a difference in shine. Would I recommend this for anyone with a prestige car or Hot rod or show car? maybe not? But your everyday homeowner with a run of the mill regular car, SUV or whatever should find this to do the job. Again it is not the work of a pro like this author here but it worked enough for my liking on our white Honda Accord. Hope this helps. Note get bird poop off a car as fast as possible. Every day or hour your leave it lets the high acid content in Birds poop permeate the clear coat and even into the paint if left long enough. Cheers

So assuming the car is ceramic coated, do you have to reapply to the whole car (meaning full decon and prep) or can you just apply to the spot or the whole hood ? Also I was given the advice to use a hair dryer to gently get out etching on small spots. Have you heard of this? Does it actually work ? My car is outside all day while I’m at work but garaged at night, I don’t have a machine polisher yet (new to detailing). Any help is appreciated 👍

I missed a small bird dropping on a couple of the satin trim pieces on my brand new 2024 Nissan Z. I don't believe the trim pieces, namely the driver side window molding and the rear "katana blade" are clear coated. The window molding is satin black (I think) and has a small scar. The "katana blade" trim is some sort of silver but the bird dropping left a very faint orange stain that I can't wipe off with simple detailing solution in-a-bottle, even with a soft tooth brush. How would you attack these two situations?

I got one on my dark blue mx5 last year when it was left for a couple days at a friends as it had a puncture, found a nice big bird poo on the bonnet when I came back. I lightly polished it and it is barely visible but didn’t want to go chasing it much as the paint is quite thin already.

Any good detailing has an arsenal depending on the throw they want , Maxshine could have different specs that work better than Rupes in certain situations. Not every consumer wants to drop $500 on a DA either. Maxshine is more consumer friendly on the mid to low end

5 minutes with a hot air gun used sensibly re-flows the clear coat. You literally watch the etch disappear in front of your eyes.

@@imjoshv Great to hear from the man himself...thank you! Here in the UK you can get "Re-flow" from Autoglym brand. Mixed results though...they are basically plastic pouches with a kind of charcoal inside. You add 40 ml of cold water, seal the pouch and massage it. They react with the water and get hot / steam comes out of them in about 10 seconds via a vent you tear open. Then stick them to the panel with stickytape tabs provided and leave for 30 minutes. I've seen a video where they work on a roof (horizontal surface) but not on a door (vertical) - but I don't think the KZbinr stuck it to the door correctly to be fair to the product. Please do research into the hot air gun technique first...I'd hate for anything to happen to that gorgeous Porsche! Great channel by the way!

Suddenly, your turtle wax duel on the bonnet of the porshe will not have a result??. Birds love to poop on shiny things, some scientists even think that some birds are smart enough to really harm humans by pooping on their cars 🤣 . Unfortunately it happens to everyone. I have an old peugeot 205 turbo diesel for all day, and I had bird poo staying far too long on the right wing, the clear coat had even swollen and the clear coat to jump, suddenly it didn't there was nothing left to save 😢, just a brushstroke and clear coat and voila, luckily it wasn't one of the cars I take care of the most!

Ha yea this actually happened at a good time cause I was done with the test anyways. I had those on for a month and gave my findings from that, but i decided its time to properly correct the paint and give a true ceramic coating!

Hey Josh I've been watching your content for a while and I always come to your channel for the majority of my car detailing tips and tricks. Recently I watched your video about spot free washesm and wanted to ask if have you seen this video about the CR Spotless conversion kit? I'm curious to know your thoughts on this, or even a video covering it maybe in the future if you decide to give it a test run? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWKnY3mIaLqlZ7M

There are less expensive models that work great, I bought one for just $100 that came with two interchangeable filters and it’s been amazing. I’d rather spend $100 then $300 for the CR system
