Bird Poo
So I'm pretty lazy when it comes to car cleaning, typically not cleaning the car for several months at a time. I do however appreciate the detrimental effect that bird cr*p has on modern car paint finishes especially if it gets baked on so without resorting to a full on wash how do you remove it without risking the dreaded swirl marks? Just hose it off? Use a jet washer?
I'm thinking about investing in a snow foam thingy at some point, I guess giving it a rinse followed by foam, and rinse it off again is a quick way to remove the worst of the dirt? Appreciate you can't dry a car after this as there will still be some dirt but it'll undoubtedly get rained upon some time after that
I know I should put more effort into looking after my pride and joy but a demanding toddler and a long list of DIY jobs means my weekends are taken up with other stuff

I had a similar problem mate where birds just loved to crap on my freshly washed car! Not sure if its because the black car in the sun attracts them. Anyways I bought some autoglym bird dropping wipes which seem to work well and you can tackle the dirt at a early stage before it starts sticking to the paint. Hope this helps
