No improvement at all, removal of the corrosion marks needs strong chemicals or mechanical cleaning like a fine grit sand blasting or emery cloth or similar. Followed by a clearcoat to retard new oxidation, I say retard because a little nick in the clear coat will allow oxidation to start there.
Mine are just small dots, they bug me but I guess it is painting them or leaving them as they are.
