If you haven't you better get that bird poo off ASPAP. That's some of the hardest stuff on paint!

Jeff is right, get it off. On a completely cured paint job, the acid in bird poo takes effect very quickly, on fresh paint its a lot faster. If the paint is dry, try scraping it off with a razor blade. I say scrape, not cut. With the blade at a 90 degree angle, even leaning toward you, pull the blade across the poo. Be careful of the corners of the blade. You can soften the corners by running them across concrete. You should be able to take it off in layers. After that, wetsand with 3000 grit and light polish. This works good if you have a run too. Don't use any harsh chemicals. If you were lucky enough for the paint to have skinned over enough, a very soft cloth and water may take 99 percent off. The polish will remove any of the rest.
