can you share pic of the affected area ?for birds droping, claying and autoscrub is best as they remove contamination from paint.so try claying.if it didnt help a desi formula is Matti ka tail.i remember my mehran back in 2014 it was just few months old catched tar and whole front side incl hood fenders and roof covered in tar.but then @ahmad_yar suggested me to use kerosene oil maati ka tail . i sprayed oil on the paint took a mf cloth and cotton and slightly rubbed it and it got removed.today now many products are in market like nanoskin tar and solvent removed.so first try claythen matti ka tail
Wet sanding MAY be required if the damage is deep but I guess most cases could be dealt with the usual paint correction process.

thank you so much for showing concern, I used petrol with cranuba car wax. it has lighten up the scar to some good extent. I will use claying method for further improvement.
After this, I really don't think that claying might help any further. But hope for the best
Bird droppings are way more harmful to paint than mostly thought. They are highly acidic and cause permanent damage. You can use a good quality compound ( the one painters use, not scratch out) to smoothen out the damaged area. If you are familiar with using rubbing compound only then do it yourself otherwise get it done professionally. Once done you can apply polish to restore the original shine.This way you can almost make it invisible...around 90 percent will be gone but going back to 100 percent originality isn't possible for deep scars. I have personally experienced all this. I never park under a tree anymore. It is much better to park under the sun than to ruin your paint under a tree.
the scare is almost gone
