dawki Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hi All Got back today after a nice weekend near Chichester and noticed some huge splats of birds poop on the van roof, thinking about it we actually heard a noise like something hitting the van late last night. anyway i have just washed the bird poop off and it would seem the bird had been feasting on blackberries. the black poop washed off easy but it has left a mark which i can't shift anybody come across this before and able to help me.

LordThornber Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Have you tried a small amount of polish on the affected area? Just a thought 8-) Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel64 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 We kept our boat at Chichester same problem, a very fine cutting paste did the trick. But do not use to often as it removes a small amout of paint each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave and Verity Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I've just tried "muc off" on my van, removes everything very easily, even black streaks under wndows. Available from Halfords, or cheaper and with very quick delivery from ebay. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawki Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thanks very much for your help I have tried polish + fennicks shampoo+A citrus de-greaser I might try muc off as suggested and then the cutting compound as a very last resort as I'm a bit wary of using that.
