How to Remove Stains from White Cars?

If a large amount of asphalt adheres to the vehicle, we can use a tar remover for deep cleaning. When using the tar remover, be sure to wear gloves. For vehicles frequently parked under trees, they are bound to be attacked by stains such as bird droppings. If the stains on the car are impurities like bird excrement, we can soak them with car wash liquid or glass cleaner, and once softened, they can be easily removed. If the stains on the car body are iron powder, the above cleaners will not work, and only specialized stain removal products can be used to slowly grind them away after washing the car body. Excessive use of clay bars or stain removal cloths may cause the paint to lose its gloss and become dull, so after use, it is advisable to apply a layer of wax to the car body.
White cars getting stained is quite common, and I’ve encountered this annoying issue before. Bird droppings, tree sap, or water stains are especially noticeable on light-colored paint. The best approach is to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise, it may leave marks. Start by gently rinsing the stained area with a hose or dedicated car wash solution, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent the paint from drying too quickly and making it harder to clean. For stubborn stains, you can spray some neutral car wash soap, wait a few minutes, and then wipe it off with a soft cloth. Remember not to scrub too hard, as white paint is prone to scratches. Regular waxing is also a good habit—it helps prevent stains and keeps the car looking shiny. Try to park in shaded areas and avoid parking under trees to minimize stain sources. I wash my car once a week to maintain its shine and prevent corrosion.
