Not sure if I'm posting this in the right section if I'm sorry.
I have 2013 ram I bought used and I have these spots on
the front Bumper that when wet they disappear but when
dry I can see them again I know this sounds crazy I've tried
washing the truck many times and used many Bug removers
I'm at a lost any help would be great.
 
I know it's kinda hard to see but there to the right of the line that showed up in the picture. Kinda a grey brownish color
 
That kind of looks like bug residue to me. Sometimes it gets etched in. Do you have any all-purpose cleaner (APC)? I'd try cleaning it with some of that (don't let it dry on the surface), rinse off the residue, then perhaps some mild clay.

For what you have left something like Meg's Ultimate Polish or even Ultimate Compound on a soft cloth by hand should get improve it. What do you have on hand?
 
Mr clean magic eraser!


Just make sure to be Very carefull if you attempt that on the paint.. I did a test spot trying to remove tree sap from hell once and it left a nice dull rash when it finally got rid of the tree sap. Good thing I did a test spot, otherwise it would've been a complete disaster.

That's too far for me to come help you :p I can't think of any other members in MS.

I have nothing on hand but i will buy what ever is needed to get it clean

If you have a Wal-Mart you should be able to get the Meguiar's products I mentioned before, and a microfiber applicator. Or, there is a good sale going on here and you could get:

BLACKFIRE Total Polish & Seal 32 oz.

Microfiber Applicator Pads spread car care products evenly & neatly. Microfiber is nonabrasive and safe on clear coat finishes.

Mango Breeze Microfiber Towel, mango buffing towel, microfiber towel, detailing towel
 
I tried using a clay bar and it did nothing. I'm starting to think it will never come off. It's a shame to the rest of my truck is near flawless
 
Can you feel the spots? Are they raised above the surface or do they feel smooth?
