What The Heck Is This?!!!!
so i wash my car pretty often, but this week i was not able to wash it due to a busy schedule.....so when i went out friday morning to wash it, i noticed a bunch of "FRECKLE" like dirt marks.....i washed it then claybar then wash again....it didnt come off.....so the next day(saturday) i went out to wash it again. This time around i was focusing on removing those marks.....i was able to take some of it off, but not all of it. At this point, id rather pay a professional detailer to try to remove for me.....has anyone dealt w/these kind of marks? and what did u use o take it off? any one know of any good professional detailers that can remove this for me?.....its not really visible unless u look for it but it does annoy me, i try to keep my car looking as shiny and nice as possible and these marks really "ERRK" me! thanks for any help you guys might provide in advance
Dirt............Clay bat the fvck out of it.
Prolly just particles of asphalt. Just keep washing and clay baring. It'll come off eventually.

yea, i used two different types of clay bar. I used "ice liquid clay bar" and Meguiars Clay bar.......none seemed to work "that well". I was rubbing it in there pretty hard.....i'll give it another go round though.
LMAO!!! i thought someone wrote "what is this" on your car in spray paint then circled some junk
then i realized how stupid i am and that it was MS paint. Just use a clay bar...it should work.

i use the liquid stuff cause its less time consuming. but i guess i should use the actual clay bar for the nitty gritty stuff...thanks guys, i'll pick up some of that golf clay bar you were talking about sean
Chances are it is what's called rail dust. Typically on the rear bumper it is the fine metal particles exiting the exhaust which settle on onto the paint and often attach. You may see a tiny rainbowish ring around each particle and after time the particle will rust.
A good clay bar will remove it. I reco clay magic as I felt the Mothers clay sucked. DO NOT USE ELBOW GREASE with clay. If anything, reduce the amount of lubricity by using slightly less amounts of your lubricant (detail spray or soap/water mix). You will most likely have to polish the are after you clay since you will get some minor marring from using clay.
