For bird doo doo, I water down the car and let the water make the poop all soft and then thats when I start washing it with car soap. I'm not too sure about that Armor All, it might have chemicals that will damage the paint. I'm just paranoid when it comes to foreign objects touching Bettsy (my car).

When taking bird poop off....let the water coming out of the hose take care of it and break it up. Now I don't mean stick your finger in front of the opening of the hose and jet the bird crap off....let it naturally stream over the dook and let it break it up naturally. That is the best way! Don't even touch it. There may be small parts of it left and that is ok to take off with a wash but never ever take bird crap off on a dry car or with a wipe. Bird crap after it dries bonds to the paint in a way. That is why you need to soften it first. Hope that helps

if a birt sh*t's on your car, remove it as quickly as possible!...bird crap can and will etch into your clearcoat...that is why i always keep a bottle of quick detailing spray with me at all times in the car...spray down the crap liberally to soften it up and if you can use a microfiber towel or 100% cotton towel to GENTLY remove it...a bird that took a deuce on my roof had some really hard crap particles (ate rocks or something) which cause minor marring to the surface...

i have found that licking it off works best (hahah), Just get is wet and keep getting it wet until it washes off. avoid scrubbing cause all you are doing is f-ing up your paint at that point
