j,
The preferred method for removing "avian waste deposits" from one's
car is to place wet paper towels over the area letting the water
"soften" said deposit. After a "while" (duration unknown), lightly
wipe the area and repeat as necessary. This should be done as soon
as possible after discovery. Never scrub!
If the area has discolored, then you probably waited too long before
doing the above. If you are in a "freeze zone", then use hot water
and reduce the "while" time so the paper towel does not freeze to the
paint surface.
HTH and take care,
Chuck

No it is from some "pee bomb human fluid" which spilled during the
filling
process. The latest trick is to throw these "pee bombs" at cars
for things
like 1. Just being on the road, 2. not accelerating fast enough or
3. not
going 90mph when being two inch tailgated.. 4. other reasons based
on joy
and happiness. I know, I have been hit by two in the last six
months on
the interstate in PA once I was able to finally get over and they
passed me
on the left. One hit my windshield and for the life of me I do not
know how
it did not break.

Subject: [MBZ] Adblkue/Bluetec question
I was behind a freightliner the other day and noticed a peculiar
smell from
the exhaust (when I wasn't behind it I didn't smell it)... the
odor was
that of feline urine.... Any chance that this is a result of a
poorly tuned
aqueous ammonia injection system (Adblue/bluetec) such as is used
by the
MBE900's in newer trucks?
Oh, and whats the preferred method for removal of avian fecal
deposits
from cars? (I know that prevention is much better, but Baltimore
city gets
kinda annoyed when you start popping an air rifle off to deal with
feathered miscreants who have nothing better to do than "decorate"
your
vehicles.)
