I need help. Oh my, the bird poop dropped in my black Pana last saturday or sunday, I found it down about late afternoon when i planned to wash my car. The bird poop is big as size of my palm, left a big mark on the driver fender. How do you remove it? it goes through the clear coat due to warm weather and soaked in many hours.

Here what I did, I polish the poop area by hand with wet sandpaper 8000, and 12000. wax it with dual action machine, multiple times. I still see a light mark with really focus . SAD !!!

Any suggestions so we all learn from it?

Thanks

ugh. That's painful and frustrating to hear. I was just in Fla last weekend and there were these crazy love bugs all over the place and had to wash of everyday due to the acid from them etching into the finish if left for too long. Luckily the ceramic coat seemed to protect the paint but after the drive home the PPF on the nose had been affected by every bug and the outline off each was visible. True to the self healing property of the PPF, I backed car out once it was clean and let it sit in the sun for less than 5 minutes (crossed my fingers) and all evidence of any bug blemishes smoothed out. Big relief!

as far as your situation with bird droppings etching that deep into paint, I'm not sure of a solution other than what you've done so far. Since you've already sanded and it's still slightly visible, only other thought would be a correcting compound followed by a finishing polish but may be difficult for 100% result.
