Can the white spots caused by car covers on the paint be restored?

The white spots caused by car covers on the paint cannot be restored on their own and require repair at a maintenance shop for recovery. Below is a detailed introduction to car covers: 1. Functions of car covers: (1) Protection against dirt, dust, water, rain, and snow (2) Resistance to UV damage to the paint, interior, tires, etc. (3) Some degree of heat insulation, preventing excessive interior temperatures in summer (4) Avoid scratches from pedestrians or children 2. Main production materials of car covers: PVC waterproof fabric. 3. Usage method: When using, cover from the head, with the rear strap being open-ended. Secure the car cover to the rear of the car with a latch (other locks can also be used), which cannot be removed without a dedicated key. Then, hook the spring hooks on both sides of the car cover to the lower edge of the car body to firmly fix the cover onto the car.
I've recently researched the issue of car cover damage. The white spots on car paint are mostly caused by oxidation due to moisture retention, especially common in hot and humid environments. I've seen many cases where if the white spots are just surface water marks, using a car paint cleaner with abrasives and rubbing in circular motions can usually remove them. However, if the paint surface has become hazy or sticky, it's likely that the clear coat has been eroded, and polishing is necessary. A reminder to everyone: don't rush to cover your car immediately after washing or rain; wait until the body is completely dry. Choosing a breathable mesh car cover is safer than a fully enclosed one.
