It's a BMW. It's on every panel and when I bought the car I had a pre-purchase inspection done and they noted there was no sign of an accident history so I don't think it's from a respray. I've had the car for four years and this is the first time I noticed it so I have no idea when it...

Well that doesn't sound great. I don't have the best light but it's definitely all over my hood and think I saw it on the roof but I'd want to clean and clay a spot to be sure.

Talking about the dots/specks you can see at the perimeter of the light reflection.

Hi Mike, Take a look at the pictures, any idea what this is and if it's fixable? I clayed a small section and polished with HD speed but it didn't really do anything. Your thoughts would be appreciated. As far as I know it has never been repainted...

Thanks for chiming in Mike. I bought a 3" and 5" backing plate, I'll go ahead and buy the RUPES yellow pads in 6" and 4".

I don't want all that crap in my garage though, that's way too many options. Trying to keep it simple and not going for perfect correction, it's my daily driver and I just want it to look clean and glossy. Just by polishing it once and washing it a few times a month it it's going to look...

Esoteric detailing and this youtube video are both pretty high on the Rupes yellow pads while everyone that has chimed in here is saying LC orange and white. Sounds like I either need a dozen LC pads or 5 or 6 rupes yellow pads.

Will an orange pad finish down nice enough? Is there a difference in LC and B&S orange and white?

I've officially put my mind in a blender looking at all the pad choices. I've put about a dozen different pads in my cart only to change my mind on which ones I need. I have an alpine white BMW, Sonax PF, and a Harbor Freight DA. What pads should I use? I know the answer is "test spot" but...

If i get the Ultimate Compound would you still recommend M205 or Ultimate Polish? Would I then have to do Ultimate Compound to correct, Ultimate Polish to polish, Klasse AIO as a wax, Klasse SG to protect or is that duplicating work? Seems like overkill.

Thanks for all the replies. I forgot to mention I do already have Klasse all-in-one and Klasse Sealant glaze. Would you still recommend the HD Speed/HD Poxy for paint correction over the Meguiar's products? To answer your questions, I don't know what my ideal budget is, I guess whatever it...

I realize you can spend a lot more than $500 but I'm only looking to detail my own car and I'm just wondering if it's worth it or not. I've never detailed a car before so I am starting off with buckets and a wash pad. Here is my list of things I think I need to buy: Power washer - $140 Foam...
