Well, it's that time of year once again. I'm wondering how all of you deal with bird crap. Do you carry a towel and take care of it right away, wait until you get home or not particularly care and let is accumulate. Personally, I carry a bottle of Meguiar's No.34 Final Inspection and a micro fiber cloth in the event of encountering just such an emergency.

I just went through the same thing this morning...
I don't know what those birds eat, but its no good for our paint! I get rid of it straight away with (soap-)water to avoid it doing any damage, but your idea of a proper cleaning product makes a lot more sense -- I'd better put that on the to-do list...

Jeff - I was told that if you lick it up and it tastes like sugar, it won't stain. Personally, I haven't tried this method, but it's worth a shot. Let me know if it really works.
