Hi guys,
I just bought a 07 pike peak white 350z about a month ago and i washed it for the first time yesterday. I discovered some tiny black spots scattered on my car when looking really closely. I had to scrub very hard to get rid of them, but I did not get them all. T.T Some spots left yellowish stains behind (fortunately i was able to scrub that off too). I am worried...I don't know what those spots are and how i got them.
Anybody else experienced this? Should I be concerned? Are those just road dusts? (I never parked my car under trees so can't be tree sap)
Please advice! Thanks!

 

prolly overspray...just claybar and u should be fine

 

I have them as well my Z is 3 months old and its all over my front bumber and rear bumper. As in your case do u garage your car? Did drive on a newly paved road recently? I park outdoors i suspect its the tree's sap, dust etc in my situation. I sit there scrubbing as well but they dont come out either.. White's a ***** to keep clean

 

do a search on artillery fungus.

 

google

 

A photo would be helpful.

I suspect road debris. A good one-step wax should take care of it. Mineral spirits is my second choice.

 

^++1 ... claybar will cure your problems. I use to get black specks around my trunk are due to brake dust. The clay bar got rid of it all

 

argh...no, my car is not garaged...I am getting a car cover tho. I guess those spots could be anything...overspray, fungus, raod debris...etc. It really sucks to see those on my new car (I feel you Kham25). I will post a close up photo when i get home. I need to find out the cause, so i can stop it for good.
Thanks guys!

 

I will try that next time I wash! Thanks

 

if that doesn't work, thinner that detailers use work well. Some eat plastic and some are more mild and will take almost take anything off of the paint but will not damage your paint.


But your best bet is a claybar like soleil350z said.
