Need Help!!!
I recently parked my car under a tree and from the looks of it
it looked like either a bird did a fly by or berrys from the tree hit my car...
i washed the car recently and waxed it...noticing that the shiet was removed but it was etched into my paint...
is there anything i can do to remove this stain?
thanx

heres one method - since things like claybar etc wont likely work on something etched into the clearcoat. . . .
you can try the 3M swirl removers #39009 for dark cars -
if that isnt enough to get at it - you could step down the grit scale and get some medium rubbing compound -
use it by hand - not machine -
the rubbing compound may leave some swirls - so the 3M should take care of those . .
but, try the milder one first - the 3M
I think Meguiars also makes something with an abrasive in it - but I dont know the details off hand.
I have used the 3M though - and it works -
