Bird Poop on Skin

Good Day All,
I just had my AS polished and noticed a big long stringy bird poop running down the shell. I immediately try to wash it off but it looks like the bird poop oxidized onto the skin.

How can I get rid of the "stain"?
Thanks
K

same problem

I had it happen too. I was able to get it off...only with a max effort Nuvite polish. The S would not cut it. I finally used f7....coarser than you "C". You can do the job with yours...better if you have a cyclo or a compounder type drill motor....but you can do it by hand.

oh I have bird poop on my new '07 bambi, and I didn't clean it off before I put it in storage for a few weeks. Is that bad? Do I need to get in there directly and get it cleaned up?
