I've tried wax, polishing compound and rubbing compound and it doesn't do a thing to remove these spots. They appeared after the car was parked outside in the rain, then sun. It looks like the paint is faded because I
can't feel anything on the surface. I recently cleaned and waxed it with PS21 products and it looked great until this. The car was painted 25 years ago. Thanks for any tips you have. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1170.photobucket.com-13164-1379987048.1.jpg) |

Per John Paterek, add some Blue Magic about the size of a pea in the middle of some P21S Paint Cleaner. If possible try on a less critical area first...
