clay
washed
compound with griots fast correcting cream
polished/waxed with hdspeed

Could it be wax/polish trapped in some chips?

That's what i was thinking. For future is there a product i can use that dries clear if that makes any sense?
At this point i will have to strip it down

Thanks on how to delete post

Next time do an IPA wipe down after polishing. Some sealants will leave a white residue while others will dry clear. Most coatings are clear and should be transparent.
