DrSnagy Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Has anyone experienced these yellow lines of little tiny dots on their car? They are hard to get off and seem to leave a stain on my black paint. Its driving me crazy!! I'm assuming its some type of pollen, but does anyone know exactly what it is?

0 DrSnagy Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 I don't believe so. I'm currently living in an apartment complex as I moved for a new job, so I can't be sure. I can't wait to buy a place so I can have a garage!! A typical wash will take the little yellow dots off, but you can see a slight stain where they were. What do you suggest I try to get that off? Maybe some Revive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JBlack151 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Try a clay bar first to help get the paint clean and free of anything that has built up onto the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some Revive? Claying liked mentioned before may work but that would mean your stripping all the protection. If it were me I would just go over the spots with a wax. Do you have sealant on the car? Detail spray could perhaps clean them up. At my place the boxelders leave those little yellow eggs everywhere they really like white for some reason too.

0 Doug123 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Try Waterless wash if you have some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 diablo1714 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I get this too! Mostly on my glass, but sometimes on the paint & the I use Detail Spray. Since my car is silver I haven't noticed any marring of the paint. I guess this is just another price of you having that beautiful black paint !

0 BlueGenCoupe Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 From the look of the last pic, it looks like yellow paint from the roads that may have splashed up from the car in front of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chewy Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I get these here on my car too... Only when it's STUPID hot. They DO etch the paint as my hood is etched to heck! I think it's sap, but I'm not sure. Mine gets it at work, but there are no trees within 100 feet of it. There really are NO bugs to speak of either, and the stuff is pretty hard like sap.

0 LFairbanks Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I bet your right Chewy. I have seen that stuff before. It is probably just carried thru the air and sticks to the first thing it comes into contact with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
