Streaky paint under clear coat!

Hey guys, I just recently bought my 04 coupe and it had a little dirt on it when I bought it, so I just thought it needed to be washed. It turns out on my side skirt there are dirst streaks under my clear coat that will not come off. what should I do? Any advice would be awesome. thanks

-Kyle

If the clear coat appears ‘cloudy’ or opaque, try applying isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to the area, allowing it to dwell for five to ten minutes and with a heat gun or hair dryer, heat the area (do not exceeding 100oF spot temperature) the IPA acts as a "drying" agent, and when combined with the heat the moisture will evaporate
