To be honest I dont think it was bird crap, and it dont believe it has penetrated just adhered as I would think it would leave marks if it had penetrated. I havent had time to detail the car so it's as the dealer prepared and we all know how good they are.

What ever it was ran down the side of the car from top to bottom, I have never had bird crap do that, I think something was poured over it when parked at Ashford Intenational for the four days we were in france or it was used as target practice.

Doubt I will ever find out what it is but just glad it's coming off.
