Weird oil like mark on paint?=[

Hey guys i just recently clayed my cbp tsx with mothers clay bar and after i was done there seemed to be a oil like substance that went in to the paint? when the sun shines on it it looks like oil in water with that swirly shine with the purple and teal and yellow kind of shine. i also waxed the car as well with carnauba wax. what do you guys think it is? i'll try to get some pictures when the sun is back... but any idea if it's anything to worry about?

I have seen pinnacle wax leave a nice colorful glow. I actually applied Pinnacle SSII to my car and saw some thing similar but not really streaking.

I would strip the wax in that area and polish it to see if removes the mark.

Then, if that works, I would polish the whole car to get rid of any swirls/rids.
