Well, my car was targed today by a bird squadron. I took it to a carwash to get rid of the poo and to my dismay I find:




Looks like a rubber scrape from a shopping cart to me. Rubbing w/ soap and water didn't help . Any ideas on how to get rid of it? I searched but couldn't find anything.

 

Ouchie! Maybe try some Nu Finish. When I used to autocross, that's what I'd use to get the cone marks off.

 

I was thinking polish, I gotta PC w/ mezerna finish and ultimate polish but haven't had the chance to use it. I'll try that soon enough. Thanks for the feedback, anyone else got any ideas?

 

Dawn Dishwashiing soap - concentrated - on that spot only. Assuming is is only ON the surface - a little hard to tell from the pic. Your next step, after Dawn, for a spot treatment on rubber would be Goo Gone, then isopropyl, then I'd get out the polisher for sure. Acetone would be next in line, but personally, I don't want that stuff anywhere near my paint....


An alternative approach - see if you can clay bar it off.

^^ I would suggest claybar and/or dawn on that spot, as mentioned above.

 

rubbing compound....

 

Thank you all for suggestions. I'll definitely try them, appreciate the help.

 

That's what I was going to say

 

And then I was too!
