Agreed - good advice above. But you can count on those bird droppings having been etched into the paint. Which means definite machine polishing to level the clearcoat. Give it a good wash and a thorough clay treatment, and if you can, share some pics after that...

1. Wash
2. Clay
3. Polish
4. Wax
The clay and polish steps will bring the paint back to life. You will have the most success with the polish stage with a PC or rotary as opposed to doing it by hand.
Why not share some before and after pics. Get some sun reflection shots off the hood and see how the swirls disappear after you polish.

Post some pics here and let us chime in with some suggestions. Do you have a orbital polisher or rotary buffer? What color is the car?
