Gritty paint.

Ok so I get these tiny little bumps all over my car from time to time that feel like grains of sand or something.
This last time, It was only 2 days after completely detailing my car.
What exactly is it? It comes off easily when washed but when I try to just use some quick detail spray or some spray wax to get it off, it streaks.

My guess is sap since there are lots of trees around but can sap drop like tiny grits of sand??

What's the best way to get rid of it? I'd hate to have to wash my car every other day or whatever. I usually try to get rid of it using quick detailing spray + microfiber towel. It works but it takes a long time and a bit of elbow grease

Last detail was 2 weeks ago. Clay bar, prima swirl polish and 2 coats of poorboys ex-p sealant. The finish was silly smooth so od hoped it would just wipe right off but nope.

Yup.
Wash it and don't park under trees.
