I hate when things go poof.

Meanwhile, where-abouts? On the bumpers or the body itself?

what do you mean by that!

On the guard.

Well typically when paint comes off that easily, it's from poor repair work that has been done.

Given it's coming off the panel, perhaps start checking for damage around the area to see why.

the first thing i'd do is swear

The first thing I would do is marvel at this high pressure house, and how someone balanced an entire house on my car?!

How much PSI can the house withstand, and how do you stop the air from escaping through the windows?

Besides the point - Normal paint shouldn't come off if it's too close.

Be funny as f**k to do a dodgy job over it, then take it to a car cleaning place that you know will use a guerney and well...you know

Buy a brand new car and sit it outside under a bat tree for a week, then go up real close with a high pressure hose & I wouldn't be surprised if some paint flaked off..

You could buy anything and do the same test, unless you remove any sort of feces from a car as soon as possible you do have a chance for it to begin eating at the paint.

There's a lot of speculation about how accurate that is, but I have seen the effects first hand on a brand new 2001 Corolla after a week, suffice to say it removed a chunk of the paint.
Rest of the paint held up perfectly fine including the area around the bird crap.

Yeah a bat sh*t on my FTO the other day and I cleaned it off the next day because it eats the paint apparently

Well this is completely different, nobody's said anything about a bat tree you noob!

Bat Tree = Tree which kustom hides in, spraying his man-gravy on cars to get him off

I didn't know Kustom was Shikaka!

lol, completely forgot about this movie. Last time I saw this, I was 15

Btw Sahin - Clean it asap, don't leave anything like that till the next day if you can help it.
