Just imagine if an elephant shat on your car, you would need a bit more than rubbing compound?

Um...technically, I think that is frottage, not masturbation.

Get a bottle of Autoglym Paint Renovator and two microfibre cloths. All in should cost you about £12
Follow the instructions on the bottle and it will be back to perfect after 2 or 3 minutes firm polishing.
Use one cloth to rub the product in and polish it and the second one to clean the area after and buff it
Uncle Irish sorts your problems

also, you need to factor in how hard or soft the paint is, and if you're using a compound like fast gloss, you will need a finishing polish to get rid of holograms left from the compound.

Depending on how far it has etched depends on what will get rid or reduce it.
A normal polish like Autoglym super resin polish should tackle the very lightly etched stains. Something like Menzera Fast gloss on a a rotary for moderately etched. Wet sand / rotary polish for badly etched.
If you want to try a hand polish with a decent cut and capable of finishing to a decent shine then something like Gtechniq P1 would be a good choice.
T-Cut will make more of a mess of the paint than the etching has.
Experience: Ive run a valeting / detailing company for the last 6 years.

I think you'll need to smear some of your own shit on top of it. Then get a damp cloth and wipe (the car). Job done.

Yeah - so it leaves a lovely little mark like a water mark.
I'm pro hunting now - I'd be happy to go all dick dastardly on the pigeon fucker who did it ( we don't get many other birds round here - though my next door neighbour is a spinstery nutcase so it could have been her, though I don't think that type if bird poo is acidic)

Orbital sander with 30g disc.
Job done, failing that - good detergent and a pressure washer.
