Sometimes it seems like birds think our vehicles are custom-built toilets. One unfortunate parking job is all it takes to replace that off-the-lot sparkle with a new, bird poop-colored paint job. It’s unsightly and a little gross, but thankfully it’s not a super tough problem to fix. All it takes is some elbow grease and 1 or 2 off-the shelf or even at-home remedies to get your wheels shiny again. We’ll give you 11 ways to clean bird poop off your car so those fowl droppings don’t drive you mad.
Things You Should Know
- Soak the bird poop in either water, WD-40, or a baking soda-and-water mixture, then wipe the bird poop away with a rag.
- Wipe your car down with car wipes or detailer spray for a specialized, paint-safe wash.
- Scrub your windshield and other windows with glass cleaner to swipe the poop away.
- Scrub your upholstery with mild laundry detergent, and use a stiff-bristled brush on the floor mats to clean off bird poop on the interior.
