2 Answers
Solutions for yellow spots on a white car: 1. Purchase a clay bar, prepare sufficient water, wet the clay bar, and vigorously rub the yellow spots on the car body, then rinse with water. This method is time-consuming and requires careful attention to completely remove the spots; 2. Use an iron remover spray on the yellow spots, let it soak for 4 to 6 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water; 3. Visit a 4S shop for car polishing, waxing, and ceramic coating. Remember to polish and wax before applying the ceramic coating; 4. Use an appropriate amount of car crystal coating to maintain cleanliness, prevent oil stains from dirtying the car again, and isolate the paint from air to avoid oxidation.
I've been driving a white car for several years and have encountered quite a few issues with yellow spots. These yellow stains are usually caused by tree sap dripping, bird droppings, or oxidation from road iron particles. If detected early, they can be removed by gently rubbing with a clay bar, but never scrape them hard as it can damage the paint. If the yellow spots have been there for a long time, they become harder to remove and require spraying some adhesive remover to soften them before treatment. I've also found that parking under trees in summer is the easiest way to get these stains, so now I try to avoid those spots. Regular waxing can form a protective layer, reducing the adhesion of yellow spots, and doing it every three months shows noticeable results. When washing the car, be thorough—don’t just rinse with water; use a dedicated cleaner. If you really can’t remove them yourself, it's best to go to a professional detailing shop for polishing.
