Bird droppings left on a vehicle's bodywork can lead to etchings or impressions forming on the paint. This is caused by the warming and cooling cycle of the vehicle's paintwork. The top level of paint (clear coat) warms and moulds around the bird dropping and then cools and hardens. The heating cycle may be triggered by sunlight or heat from the engine. Over time, as the cycle repeats, the clear coat takes on an impression of the bird dropping, often appearing in the form of a faded or dull etchings. The level of damage or severity of the etching can be impacted by several factors including the composition of the bird dropping, the time it has been left on the paintwork, the age of the vehicle and the climatic conditions.

Reflow has been developed to help rectify these imperfections in the paintwork. The water-activated thermal transfer packs have been designed to heat to a specific temperature which they retain for a specific length of time to create the optimum conditions for the paint to soften, reflow and fill the etchings caused by the bird droppings. As the pack cools, the paintwork resets, effectively healing the affected area and removing the bird dropping mark.

Each Reflow pouch contains five thermal transfer packs. Reflow should be placed and left on the damaged paintwork, untouched, for 30 minutes.

Important

  • Refer to the health & safety information on the pack before use.
  • Do not add water to the pack unless you are next to the vehicle and ready to start the process, as the pack will heat up quickly.
  • For use on vehicles with clear coat only. Safe on painted plastic parts with clear coat. Not suitable for any other surfaces than paintwork.
  • Do not use on matt or cellulose paint or wraps.

Instructions

  1. First wash and dry the vehicle to remove all trace of the dropping. Tear off the top of the pack where instructed.
  2. Add 40ml of water to the fill line and fold over the top of the pack twice.
  3. Remove the peel-able sticker from the vent hole and reuse it to secure the fold at the top of the pack. Caution: the vent hole will release very hot steam.
  4. Holding the pack horizontally, massage the heating pad firmly with your thumbs for 10 seconds to ensure heating pad is completely saturated. Quickly place it over the affected area with the vent hole showing on top and the heating pad over the defect. Use the supplied adhesive tabs to secure the pack to the paintwork.
  5. Leave the pack untouched on the paintwork for 30 minutes. Once cooled, carefully remove and dispose of the pack in the general waste.
  6. Important! Wait 10 minutes for the paintwork to set before touching or applying any other products as new marks could be introduced.

Relatively easy to use and as long as the bird droppings have not been on the car for too long it possibly works really well The are I used the product on think the bird poop had been baked onto the paint during the really hot weather for a good few days before attempting to remove and clean. Product worked reasonably well but the had to use a detailed and polish (along with some elbow grease!) to remove the residual mark. Depending on which angle you view the spot at it looks gone but other ways there is very slight blemish
