As per the title, does anyone have any proven products (and/or techniques) for removing bee poop?

I've tried scrubbing, picking, bug & tar remover, fall out remover, clay bar and these stubborn yellow spots will not budge 😤

Thanks in advance!

I’ve had this problem for a few years now and I've found no silver bullit for removing it. I generally find about 70% will wash off with the car wash sponge the remaining come off with a bug sponge, the really stubborn ones come off with my finger nail but they do come off.

I get small spots all over my car by the way.

I watched Outback Car Rescue last night, bloke on there recommended full cream milk, apparently an enzyme in it helps to break up bug remains. Rub it in with a soft cloth. I’ll be trying it as soon as I get some, my Mini is absolutely covered in Midge remains.
Emphasised it had to be the full cream variety.

Milk!?!? =)) I'm willing to give it a try, but I think I'll try that in Tescos car park, not my own driveway haha.

Keep it away from panel gaps, would be a wise decision, I reckon
