    Hate it when they target mine. I get it off as soon as I spot it. Lift it gently with kitchen roll soaked in hot water. No wiping until it's lefted. Then buff the area with meguiars detailer spray. If its left a mark I use I bit of megs ultimate compound then seal with some wax. Luckily it's few and far between mine is attacked but was at the seaside today and some of the local cars are covered in it from the seagulls. Was pleased to find mine untouched when I returned to it though.

      Wife used the car for a day trip to Sledmere House on Sunday...not sure where she parked it whilst she was there but it came back looking like she’d parked it under a tree full of birds that had been on curry the night before!! Got it all washed off before yesterday’s sun baked it on!!

          Black cars don't stay clean for long. Usually its dust that shows. They only stay clean for 3 days

                    1 day unless you have a garage, mine got a wash/wax on Saturday morning, by five that evening you could see 'Sahara' dust all over it... but at least i got another coat of Fusso on it..
