I have a C7 Shark Gray Metallic Convertible with 550 miles. Over the 4th of July weekend it was hit on the hood by toxic birds___. After removing it, a stain the size of a nickel remains on the hood. It appears it went right through the clear coat. I took it to a body shop and they couldn't get it out and said I may have to repaint the entire hood. I never experienced anything like this before. Any ideas on how to remove this stain short of a repaint would be appreciated.

How long was the stain on the hood before it was cleaned off?
I have seen bird droppings etch the clearcoat, but not go all the way through, and I have been able to remove them by hand polishing with 3M new paint polish...

Did they wet sand it? Bird droppings when they are eating berries is like pure acid, see seagulls ruin a paint job

I removed it same day, probably a couple of hours.
