Seeking help for paint defects

[theTown]

I need some help identifying and treating this defect. An incompetent dealership repainted the front end of this vehicle leaving textured speckles on the hood and bumper.

In my test spot I’ve clayed, compounded, and polished but some speckles persist despite the test spot feeling silky smooth. I assumed overspray (if it was that) would have come up with clay. It resembles pitting from road debris that I’ve seen on higher mileage hoods - except this was recently repainted. The speckles are only in certain areas vs. uniformly distributed.

Looking for opinions. Thanks.

It’s the worst around the emblem (not clayed or polished example):

I once had a little bit of that in a repainted spot on a repaired car I had. To me it looked like embedded contaminants. There was nothing I could do to improve it.

That looks like something went wrong with the clear. Have you complained to the dealer about it?

Looks like solvent pop in the clear to me.... Bring that back and have them redo it.

Was afraid to hear answers like this. I won't be letting this dealer touch the car again (long story, but they're incompetent). I could demand they pay a trusted shop to fix it, but not sure how well that'll go over. The area pictured is the worst. I wonder why the defects fade away toward the upper right in the pic? Other areas of the front end range from free of defects, to a more minor amounts of this.
