Can't get tree droppings off paint

[u/crescentmoonrol]

Does anyone have any advice on how to clean this off my car, I've had it washed about three times, once at the best car wash. Is this a detailing thing or is my paint ruined. It's been on there, if I am honest, for a month, because every time I wash it it doesn't come off and I have had no time in my schedule to figure out where to take it since. It's a 2019 Lexus UX 200 in gray

Try a clay bar!!

Needs an acid and alkaline wash. Doing it yourself has a high up front cost of buying all the supplies and materials but you’ll be able to do it yourself more often. Or you can bring it to a professional detailer and they can get it done in a day for 200 or so.

Try GelGloss.

Maybe try a bug and tar remover on a discrete section and see if that works. If you know a good detailer then that’s your best bet if you can afford it.
