Car cover for bird droppings: use and care
Cleaning droppings
- Soften them with a wet cloth first; do not scrub them dry.
- Clean them soon, because baked-on droppings can mark clear coat.
- Wipe the cover too, so you do not carry droppings onto the paint.
Choosing a cover
- A full cover protects every panel; half covers protect the top.
- Check the length range against your vehicle.
- Use a car wash or a detail spray after removing a cover that has been covered in droppings.
FAQ
What is the best car cover for bird droppings?
A snug, waterproof cover with a soft lining that fits your vehicle, used on a clean car.
Do bird droppings damage car paint?
They can mark clear coat if left to bake on, so clean them soon with water and a soft cloth.
Waterproof or breathable?
Breathable fabric lets moisture out; waterproof films keep rain out but can trap damp. For long outdoor storage, breathable is kinder to paint.
How do I stop a cover blowing off?
Use under-body straps or an elastic hem, and size the cover to the car.
Should I cover a dirty car?
Wash and dry it first; grit under a cover can scratch paint.
Which one to choose
For SUVs, the thick full cover. For a small sedan, the Mockins in light weather. For a pickup, the pickup cover. For an Armada, only the Armada-specific cover.
