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.

I was down at Oulton Park at the weekend in my white immaculate) Boxster-987, parked my car in the Hotel car park which was under a tree(Mistake!), in the morning the car was covered in bird sh*t, once back home I've given her a good wash, the body work is now fine, but the Hood still shows white marks, anybody got any ideas the best way of cleaning the hood -I've tried soapy water, is there a spray you can buy to take out any stains?

Try leaving a (colourfast) towel full of warm water on it to soak it off good and proper. You might need a few goes but it should work. You can also gently agitate it with a soft clothes brush.
there is a very good article all about this in a Porsche magazine this month - sorry cannot remember which one as I was flipping through a few in my local WHSmith library
£75?! You are being had over. A renovo cleaner and reviver/dye is about £25 and if you want to waterproof the fabric a tin of fabsil is about £10 or less

There's a decent guide on Kelly's site..

P.S. Once you are clean, re-proofing is really worth the effort [for costmetic reasons]. I recently tried some Grangers XT and the initial results were as good as the video at the above link.... P.P.S. You generally need to apply these re-proofing products to a thoroughly wetted top in the shade and then move the car into the sun to let it bake dry. However you would be wise to mask-off the glass, adjacent trim/paintwork first which can be a pain so best left for sunny day without too much wind
