Birds

Has anyone had good results in removing all traces of bird droppings off of unpainted body panels.
I have sanded, Scotch Brited, soaked with solvents, soaked with metal prep, prayed, cussed and everything else I could think of short of grinding.

The acids have penetrated into the metal and things rust up in short order.

I will be sand blasting soon and will try that, but am not too excited about warping.

Any thoughts?

Re: Birds

maybe some naval jelly and primer? Havn't tried it, but it should stop any rust.

Yup. Naval jelly or Phosporic acid (same thing). They sell small plastic cans of it at most auto parts stores. eats rust really good.
