I have a 2012 Candy White Jetta. A couple of weeks ago I used d300 and a MF pad to remove the DISO. Finished with M205 and sealed with M20. Car looked good under the sun gun and in the natural sun. Clear, 99% defect free.
Fast forward to this past weekend. Washed with Meg's rinse free express. I noticed, under the sun gun, that while still "defect" free, I see these little spots. Not a color, just that the paint lacks clarity. Can't see them unless you are RIGHT on the paint or in VERY bright sun. The only thing I can think of is that where I park at work, I will sometimes get some very small, light sap drops on my windows, which I am sure make their way to the paint as well.
Could it be some sort of etching? D300 seems to remove it, DG 501 made it better, but not all gone.
Thoughts are appreciated. I think the plan is to correct again, though I hate to do it, and then OC the car. The car is flat white, and I have had metallics most recently, so maybe this is why I am noticing this. Tried to capture it in a picture, but it really didnt come out well.
Thanks in advance.
