You can even scratch the spots with your fingernail and it does nothing. It looks like they are baked on, like the car sat with these spots in a showroom for a year....which it might well have
I just purchased a Meguires clay bar and wax. I was hoping someone might have some ideas. And should i attemp to clean the spots off before clay bar and wax, or will these 2 procedures remove the spots?
With only 450 miles on it I would try a clearcoat polishing compound and a buffer first rather than taking a chance on f....ng up the paint. Personally, if you bought it from a dealer with only 450 miles on it, I'd tell them to fix it.
