Exclamation Clouded paint?

I made the Raging Bull run in the Texas Hill Country again this year. After doing $600+ damage to the car last year, I put on a clear bra and just before I left I bought a nose mask. Made the run with minimal rock chips and drove home. Lazy me left the nose mask on for 2 weeks even while wet. Well, I got the "Clouding paint" problem. Funny thing is, the clear bra was under the nose mask and this is where the clouding is. What I don't know is whether it's the clear bra or the paint that is clouded.

Any ideas short of pulling the $500 clear bra off would be appreciated.

Maybe just maybe if you leave the car out in the sun for a period of time....the cloudiness may be water that condensated under the clear bra.....

I left one of those old vinyl nose bras on my old RX7 after a heavy rain....I didn't think anything of it until I got around to take it off....I had basically the same problem as you.....mine soon after disipated after a couple of polishes and natural sunshine.....

Hope it works out for you.
