Are there more protection from water spots and bird droppings from a Wax or Sealant? Here is the deal – For years I used Mothers Souveran or other wax on my daily drivers, during that time I had zero paint damage from either bird droppings or water spots. About a year and half ago I switched my daily drivers to sealants, since them I had several damage areas by mainly bird droppings. In my yard are four big cedar trees that this time of year they have a blue berry on them and are favorites of black bird. It is not uncommon that I have several bird droppings on my car in the morning when I ready to leave for work. I was doing a durability experiment on the hood between two popular sealants for the past few months and I have had damage to both sides of the hood and wasn’t long after I applied them. I have done searches on several detailing forums for water spotting and bird droppings almost everyone reporting damage was using a sealant. So over the 14 years I have lived in the house is it just recently I have encounter birds droppings that damage paint or is wax providing more protection??
