Bird Poop & Bug Removal From Your Car Paintwork

Effective Bird Poop and Bug Splat Removal: A Step-by-Step Guide to protect your Paintwork.

Bird droppings and bug splatters are more than just unsightly — they can cause lasting damage to your vehicle's paintwork if not addressed promptly. Bird poo contains high levels of uric acid, which can quickly etch into the surface of your car paintwork. Without quick removal, this can lead to permanent blemishes on your pride and joy.

 To remove bird droppings and bug splats effectively, follow these steps using our Bird & Bug Remover:

  1. Spray the product generously onto the affected areas, including dried deposits, as rehydration of the bird droppings or bug debris is essential.
  2. Allow the foam to rehydrate the deposits for at least one minute.
  3. Gently dab and lift the softened bird dropping/bug debris from your car paintwork or glass.

Sometimes bid droppings can leave a residue:
This stubborn residue is clearly sitting on top of our protective layer. This occurrence is frequently observed in dark-coloured vehicles exposed to sunlight, especially in higher temperatures. When birdlime strikes these surfaces, it tends to solidify and bake on top of our protective coating. To remove the residue, we recommend our Scuff Remover Kit. The kit consists of our product Wipeaway—a gentle cutting compound capable of removing the residue from the surface without compromising our protective layer. Additionally, the Paintseal Cream in the kit will contribute to an even finish, providing sealant properties and enhancing the overall shine!
