Subject: Re: Cleaning Bird Droppings by biggrizzly on 2010/3/11 16:48:32 At our car show last June, there was a guy that just bought a brand new ZR1 in Jetstream Blue from the dealership and took delivery a few days before the show. I wanted a new ZR1 on display so he said we could keep it at the Dealership a few extra days to have in the show as long as it was in the showroom. Well... as we had to move cars around for the show, I asked his son to take the ZR1 outside temporarily while we jockied cars around. About an hour later I went out to bring the car back inside and there was a bird turd the size of Silver Dollar right on the hood in front of the clear lexan port. I immediately called the owners son and the supervisor of the detailing department. That bird crap etched an outline of the turd into the clear coat. The best detailer there buffed it out but was afraid to do too much buffing on the new finish as he didn't want to make it more conspicous than it already was. All I know, is that I'm glad I didn't park that car. His son parked it under a ledge where pigeons frequently sit and poop. I think they left it alone as it was ok from 5ft away but if you got up close you could still see a faint ghost of an outline... Sucks to be that guys kid. He was not angry at me at all and he wound up winning some trophies for another car he had there. 1969 COPO Camaro that he bought in 1969 from that very dealership. Amazing Car. Thats my bird story for the day. |
