I used Zymol HD cleanse about ten times and then waxed it using Zymol Gasur wax but I can still see the mark (only from an angle).

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Last week a bird crapped on my car (rear spoiler to be specific) and unfortunately, it looks like it slightly damaged the paint before I could get it off. You can not tell looking down at it or from a distance (Arctic Silver Car) but, if you catch the light just right, you can see the mark it left. I used Zymol HD cleanse about ten times and then waxed it using Zymol Gasur wax but I can still see the mark (only from an angle). Nobody sees it when they look at the car but it still bothers me! Anybody have any tips or recommendations on how to fix this type of spot? Thanks!!

POST 2Original post

Have you tried a clay bar? Sometimes they can remove water spots...might even work in your case and not much of an investment.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No, I have not tried the clay bar yet. I noticed it was mentioned for a clear coat fix and I think that is what is damaged. I want to try something that is the least abrasive first. How abrasive is the clay bar? BTW, you car looks incredible. I had a black car for 10 years and never had it shine like that!

POST 4Original post

I'd try a clay bar first. Clay bar should not be abrasive at all (as long as you use a spray cleaner/wax as lubricant. Any store that sells auto waxes should carry a claybar with spray. Very easy, and if your car has never been claybarred all over you should try it. Amazing results.

Thank you SOOOO much for the compliment! Check out this website on an explanation of the clay bar. There are also numerous other articles on detailing your beautiful P-car! http://www.autopia.org/forum/guide-d...-cleaning.html Rotor sends...

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys. I will try the clay bar out and let you know how it works.

POST 7Original post

Clay's not gonna work. The stomach acid from the bird has actually etched the clear and since Clay's not abrasive it's not going to fix the issue. You need an abrasive polish to fix this issue....possibly more depending on how badly the clar has been etched. Andy

POST 8Original post

Just a suggestion--the handiest tool I have purchased for quite a while is the mini 3" random orbital from Griot's. I have used it on everything from spot polish/wax on minor scratches to touching up the clearcoat lip on one of my wheels. Also great for the areas where the full size does not fit.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Got the Mothers Clay bar and AudiOn19s is right. No change. Bummer. Since I just waxed it two weeks ago I think I am just going to wait and fix it when I wax it again. I will look into the mini 3" orbital too. Thanks Jon.
