I had bird droppings on my car top once. It seemed like I wasn't wiping off, but more rubbing it in.

I have to park under lines like that at work, it's either risk the bird crap or risk parking next to some coworker who will ding my doors so I go with the birds, lesser of two evils! I have not yet gotten droppings on the top but I'm going to have to guess that an old toothbrush and a wet rag is the way to remove it promptly.

True story, cars are attracted to shiny objects and there-fore prefer to fly/sit above clean cars. I've washed my car 3 times since I got her, and have had 3 birds crap on my car within 24 hours.

I went on vacation for a week this summer, and I purposely washed and waxed my car and parked it in the garage so I could come home to a clean car. I come home, my dad moved it out of the garage cause his Harley wouldn't fit. I counted 7 droppings, and 3 of them were on the soft top which took a while to get off. I hate birds!

Boids! Filty, disgusting boids!

My parking lot at work is next to a lake, and I could harvest enough seagull guano off my S2000 to open a nitrate processing plant. I'm making lots of trips to a local spray wash. For some reason, the birds didn't seem to like my econobox quite as much, but I think it is because I park further away from my building and closer to the lake, where fewer people park. Caught between the rock of getting my car dinged and scratched by other cars, or the hard place of my car being a gull latrine.

Oh agony, a-g-o-n-y.........
