Default Magnetic Polish?

No polish and the car remains clean. Polish it and a bird thinks that it is a toilet! No pics. Not pretty! Sorted! For now!


If you have to see pics:-
Cars with poop!

They are devious creatures, they watch you cleaning and target afterwards

I solved this issue with an air rifle. Suggest CO2 instead of pump action as you can actually get a clean kill with the former - hit a bird and see it limp off sqwarking and you'll feel like a right ****. Bird poo will eat your paintwork but rest assured they have territory - no need to kill more than a couple every few months.

I've noticed that bird poo on a dark coloured/black car is always almost white and vice-vrsa. These are definitely intelligent reatures we are dealing with.
