Spots on paint after wash
Any ideas on what these spots could be? Noticed those a few months ago and found some more today. Thinking its from poor waxing or washing technique, but I'm not sure. Haven't tried clay yet, but the spots aren't rigid.
Thanks |

Could be some kind of environmental deposit. Try clay or, if that doesn't get it, a light polish.

This happened on the bonnet of my zooki rock crawler.
Looks like dirt got into the paint. I used meguiar's ultimate pre-waxing glaze polish to pull the dirt out and then rewaxed. |

Clay, a bit of polish, and then wax immediately. stuff shouldn't stick to your paint like that if you have a coat of wax on there.

Then after you clay, polish and wax go get it a ceramic coating on your car.
