So i assume this will be under this topic
 I've noticed that my car has whats called 'crows feet' (minor cracking in the clearcoat) from bird droppings  Everytime I get any on my car i wipe them off as soon as possible, but still this happens. It did this on my last car also. My question is... Is it likely to start 'peeling'? Because this is my worst fear. I don't want my car to look hickery  In my personal view, its minor. At the moment. But is there any products to protect my paint from doing this further? Because i've been told wax isn't enough. Thanks

Could always glass coat it, but I'd only have that done to a car with new or mint paint. Wax should be enough, at least it has for every car I've had. Maybe the birds in New Zealand have super acidic waste material. Another option is to install a laser guided rifle that'll shoot down any bird within a mile.
