O.G.
Wow 
that is some strong bird shit you got there. 
It usually comes off with warm water. Whatever you do, do it quick because it has acid and it will mess up your paint in the long run.

sounds like you didn't get to it quick enough. bird droppings don't need that long before it ruins the paint.
good luck!

This is from MSN Carpoint.
"Probably the most common problem with cars that enter detail shops is contaminants on the paint, such as dried tree sap, bird droppings or paint overspray."
"Detailers use a soft clay cleaning bar prior to buffing, gently rubbing over the finish to remove contaminants such as overspray paint and diesel," explained Zefkeles. "The clay bar is designed to work with cars that have clear-coat paints. It smoothes the paint out prior to buffing."

Great. I noticed the bird stain didn't come off completely. If you look at an angle you still see it. It's weird because the paint feels smooth as glass. I don't know what to do. I even used Mother's Clay Bar. Is it gonna have to be wet sanded maybe?
