Bird poop...

Post by Victor Meldrew » Fri Sep 05, 2008 11:38 pm

Not long off the phone tonight to Lesley and she tells me the S4 has a big huge stain/mark on the paint in the middle on the bonnet where some bird has pooped on it.... I asumed it was of the feathered variety but you never know...

Does anyone know a decent detailer in the Fife area..? The car could do with a proper polish as there are some other minor scuffs on it that should polish out.





First post in car care... slightly embarassed being here to be honest... :|

Just spoke to Lesley, you were wrong about the bird type, it was indeed Big Mary from leven that shat on your bonnet, I fear the worst.............

Will give her a call and go have a look at the shatmark sir, cheers

Remember a bird once in Mombassa back in the 60's, and I had wire wool rash for days, as I swear blind that it actually was a Brillo pad down there.
