Help! I polished my car and now the paint is covered in white speckles!
Last weekend i washed and polished my 2008 jet black bmw with Meguiars ultimate compound, by hand. I didn't get time to wax it.
I was happy with the result, it had a lovely shine and all scratches were gone.
This weekend I washed it again and noticed this:
The bonnet is worst effected, but they are all over the car.
The white dots are dried ultimate compound polish. (I know they are not primer as mine is grey), and they seem to be in the pores of my paint, not sitting above it.
I have tried buffing them out with IPA, WD40 and peanut butter none of which had any effect. I could clear a couple of the largest spots from stone chips using an electric toothbrush, but most are too small and numerous.
Does anyone have a method for removing these???
