HELP ME!!!

any one knows how to get rid of them,
i tried bud n tar remover spray and it didnt work...

 

did u try washing it and waxing it before you did anyof that stuff ?

 

yes, but its the plastic side panels where the stains wont come off...

 

i have no idea . best thing i can say is have them buffed out .. but are u sure they're permanent ?

 

Had that happen to my wife's silver Corolla and I used 3m's rubbing compound to get it out. Don't forget to use a glaze to remove any swirls from the compound then wax.

Hope this helps.

 

where can i get that ?

 

Before using any compounds, try a claybar. If the claybar can't remove them, then use the compounds. You should be able to pick up a claybar at your local parts store in the cleaner/wax section.

how does a clay bar work to remove those stains?

 

Basically, in the detailing world, the claybar is the last line of defense before your car's paint surface has to go under the compounds, which can actually "shave" a level of clearcoat off the car. It basically "pulls" stuff out of the the surface of the car without harming the finish or removing any clearcoat (if used properly). Do a google search for "how a claybar works" or something and you will find tons of hits. Also, the claybar will remove basically anything you have on the surface where you use it, including any waxes, polishes, etc. Remember to re-wax the area when you're finished. Here is the write up from Zaino (again, find more on google):

NOTE: I do use the Zaino claybar, but any claybar will work. In fact, most car clay comes from the same manufacturer regardless of brand on the packaging.

Quickly and safely removes contamination. Makes your paint feel smooth as glass!

Z-18 ClayBar™ is a pliable, synthetic bar that quickly and safely removes imbedded contamination from all glass and painted surfaces. Used for years by automobile manufacturers and auto body shops, paint cleaning clay is an excellent choice for removing contamination that cannot be removed using conventional cleaning methods.

Z-18 ClayBar™ is non-abrasive and works like no cleaner, compound or chemical can. When used as directed, it is safe for use on all paint finishes.

Use Z-18 ClayBar™ to help remove the following:

Rail dust - Tiny, sharp bare metal shavings that can adhere and imbed into the paint finish and cause serious damage when left untreated. Over 70% of new vehicles are transported from the factory using the rail system. In many cases, new cars are stored near a railroad and becomes infected with rail dust.


Brake Dust - Similar to rail dust, brake dust is also in the form of tiny, sharp metal shavings. In recent years, asbestos brake pads were replaced with metallic brake pads, which are actually brake pads made from tiny metal or metallic shavings. Anytime a vehicle is braking; brake dust is disbursed into the air and onto the paint finish. Since the brake dust is now actually tiny particles of bare metal, this form of brake dust can seriously damage the paint finish when left untreated.

Industrial Fallout - A general term used for pollution and can be found in many forms. Eventually, pollution settles onto the paint finish of all vehicles and can cause serious damage when left untreated.

Tree Sap, Road Tar, Bug Residue, Paint Overspray, and Acid Rain Deposits -- These contaminants adhere to or imbed into the paint finish. Left untreated, they will cause permanent damage to your car's paint work by staining and weakening the protective properties.
Z-18 ClayBar™ is highly recommended as the ultimate way to clean and prepare your car's finish prior to using the Zaino Show Car Polish system.

 

Using a claybar is great for removing micro dust and particles that are embedded in the finish of your car but does not do much for those bug stains. I tried claying the affected area of my wife's car with no luck. It creates a smooth and slick surface and is great for prepping your car prior to polishing. If you decide to clay your car check what grade it is. Most detailers will recommend only a fine grade for darker colored cars.

As for compounds removing clearcoat, it all depends on what type of compound you are using and whether you are applying it by hand or machine. Using a fine polish such as Meguiar's DACP or 3M fine cut rubbing compound applied by hand or an orbital buffer would be a safe choice to remove stains or minor marring.

I believe 3M products can be found at auto stores like NAPA.

 

CarQuest also has a full line of professional 3M products, I like FI-II with a rotary for minor stains/swirls/etc. Their swirl mark remover is pretty good too.
