on my hood to nice spots where the paint has started to bubble up, the poop was only on there for 1 day. is the paint process that crappy? this is a warranty issue right? also if they do repaint the hood who pays for the clear bra to be put back on? talk about putting a damper on my exhaust and ucc shifter high...:mad:

bird poop is highly acidic, so it actually could have damaged your paint if it was sitting in the sun baking on. Have you tried a solid wash, clay, and wax?
A mix of Baking soda and water in a paper cup works fantastic for this. Just dip a soft towel in it and work the area. It neutralizes the acid in the bird droppings.. I've done this a plenty of times, and it comes right off.. The sooner the better though.

I din't have mine bubble up but had it eaten into by the bird poop and had to polish it to fix it. I have never had this hapen before including on many German, Italian and British sports cars. I would say it is cheap American paint but my Dodge and Chevy trucks don't suffer from the problem either. :confused:

Let me guess, your V must be black - happened to me as well the acid in the poop w/ the high temp that black hits in the sun will eat into the clearcoat . . . body shop was able to get it 99.9% out by wet sanding the clear down just a drop . . . needs to be done professionally once it has bubbled like that.

Just my 2 cents.
After having had 5 other black vehicles I always wipe off any bird droppings right away. Sounds like you've learned your lesson? Wipe it off immeadiately! Good luck removing in the mark.
Mines Stealth Gray, yes better start washing every day instead of every other day. Thanks for the replys...William
