Which one is worse? Parking under a tree or under the sun?

[sientobente]

I got this problem where the parking slot I am allotted to only has 2 options, either I park under a tree. It is shaded but birds kinda stay there and makes my car their toilet dump. Or should I go for an open parking slot where the scorching summer sun is blasting away on my paint and probably even my interior? Which one is better? Got no time to put a car cover since it's my office parking slot and no one ever does that.

Sobrang dami bang birds?

[sientobente]

probably sir, looks like there are atleast 3 of them taking a crap in chorus on my car because different sides and panels are affected.

Hindi man kaya yan durian tree.. Hehehe. Kung Ako I prefer sa tree Kaysa open space.

I would still park under the tree. It's easy to clean bird poop naman. You don't have to clean the whole car. I've seen how parking under the sun could damage the car's paint. Yung hood, roof and trunk fades over time. That is why I avoid at all costs parking under the sun.

Park under a tree na lang. Unless coconut yung tree 😨 or any madaktang tree.

[benchman]

under the tree ako wag lang coconut, always bring your QD na lang.

"baka pati langaw, madulas dyan.."

but seriously.. would frequent waxing protect the paint finish from bird poop? in my experience, bird poop that isn't wiped off fast, somehow damages the paint surface..

Under the tree. Wag lang ibon adarna yung mga ibon at baka maging bato pati kotse. Wehehe.

If I can tolerate public transport, dun na lang ako.
Nakakaawa ang sasakyan under direct sunlight for the whole day. Kung mahuna huna pa interior mo eventually lulutong din yun or magbibitak-bitak. Di rin ako sure sa impact nito sa engire and other parts like rubber gaskets.
Regarding bird poop naman, ay grabe lang damage nya. Nagiging uneven yung paint at ang paget talaga. Parang ayoko namang sa araw araw na lang eh magpupunas muna ako ng bird poop bago umalis ng parking o pagkauwi ng bahay.
Siguro under the tree, pero kung may disposable plastic film na pwede kong ilagay sa ibabaw ng sasakyan ko.

also depends on what kind of tree. . .like mango tree. . .its leaves are acidic and its its branches are not sturdy.
