Bird Crap Help

Mods: please leave this here for an hour or two since I need a quick response.

So a bunch of birds shat black shit all over my car and it WILL NOT come out. It got baked on in 85 degree direct sunlight and the car looks AWFUL. It's all over the trunk, the roof, and the doors. I tried bug and tar remover and it did nothing. What products do I need to get rid of this?

Maybe try a Clay Bar. That should be able to remove it

Edit: Im assuming you mean that it has almost etched into your paint right

Called him. He said a clay bar is the only thing that will take it off. So I'm going to let it cool down and try again tonight. PM me the painter the messed your stuff up so I don't go to him
