well last week i took my 350z out from my backyard do to winter while i was driving a beater around now that i sold the beater and driving the z again i noticed i have black dots all over my car hood,door,roof,and quater panel if i scratch them off it will come out completely and some of the little black layer stays there. Idk what to do tried couple things like scrubing it with warm water and soap, clay bar, and washing it then waxing it. I have searched online and its a some kind of fungus do to mulch,wood, stuff like that i need help asap! lol heres a pic of it and a quick pic of my 350z thanks guys

 

i hope thats not your camry...

 

lmaoooo hell no ricer next door to me lol

 

you try an orbital buffer??

 

Moved to the correct subforum

 

This is called artillery fungus and it's a ***** to get off. My Gf had this crap on her Jeep Liberty. You really need to scrape it off with your nails or a credit card.

Some user suggestions on the bottom. It might require intense machine work.

 

TRY the clay bar!!
Those things does wonders. ive used it on my 2007 350z when i got it used 3 months ago the whole bar was black. you cant see it but you can feel it

 

I'm sorry to say this but your car has the herps..

 

Another Z fallen to the herp.

Im gettin that next month but i dont wanna wait dat long just incase it messes up my paint ughh

I spryed my car with mothers california gols showtime instant detailer,then use the clay bar and wiped it off but no it comes off but u can still see a tiny black dot fml!!!!

 

Lik i said i just brought the car out and sold my other car so im looking for baller rims now n i dont drive it at all just to the gym or barbershop thanks i appreciated that

 

 

uuuuuhhhhhh OK....

 

OK this is a first for me. I am familiar with aphid droppings. Looks very familiar. But not in February. Try:

a. Mineral spirits on soft white towel. One finger small area at a time.
b. Ammonia may breakdown the residue. Use sparingly.
c. Goo-be-Gone has a citrus base. Worth a try.

 

Looks like road tar to me.
Need to emulcify it...Try a road tar remover...let it soak in to soften the stuff.
You may have to us your finger nails or the edge from a credit card.
Are there any factories nearby that produce any by products like carbon black?
This could be the problem.

 

tryin to b funny smh u must b old lol

Lol forreal tell me about it smh!

I fogot about goo gone lol thanks n imma try he other ones also thank you sir! But would mineral spirits hurt my paint in anyway never used it before lol

I tried a road tar n a differnt kind also no luck on removing the entire thing it will just take the top part off imma try to take a pic of what it leaves after removing the top layer. And there a factory miles away not sure what products it produces tho cant be that tho my next door neighbor also has a z and he never had a problem like this and he had his for years
