How to Remove Black Spots on a White Car?
2 Answers
Before removal, it is necessary to determine what the black spots adhering to the car paint actually are, so that the right remedy can be applied. Below are methods to remove black spots: 1. Asphalt: If the black spots are asphalt adhering to the car paint, they can be cleaned using tar remover. Remember to wear gloves when using tar remover. 2. Bird droppings and other impurities: If you frequently park under trees, your car is inevitably attacked by bird droppings or tree sap. If the black spots are substances like bird droppings, they can be soaked with car wash soap or glass cleaner, and after softening, they can be easily removed. 3. Iron particles: If the black spots on the white car paint are dense iron particles, none of the above cleaners will work. Only specialized clay bars or stain-removing cloths can be used to slowly grind them off after washing the car body. (Excessive use of clay bars/cloths may cause the paint surface to lose its gloss and become dull, so after use, it is advisable to apply a layer of wax to the car body.)
I usually pay special attention to keeping my car clean. Those small black spots on white cars are actually quite common, mostly caused by tar, iron particles, or tree sap. To remove them, you need the right method—regular car wash soap doesn’t work at all. I’ve tried using a clay bar with water to scrub slowly; this physical friction is effective but too labor-intensive. Later, I found that specialized stain-removing sprays work much better, like iron particle removers. You spray it on, wait a few minutes for the stains to dissolve, and then rinse them off cleanly. The key is to apply wax to protect the paint afterward; otherwise, the black spots will stick again. Remember to wear gloves when handling these cleaners, as they can be somewhat corrosive and may harm your skin.
