How to Remove Yellow Stains from White Car Paint?
2 Answers
White car paint can develop yellow stains due to the following reasons and removal methods: Dust and impurities: When driving in dusty areas, white paint can accumulate dust and stubborn impurities that regular washing cannot remove, such as tar and bird droppings. These sticky substances require specialized cleaners for soaking, stain removal, and rinsing to completely eliminate them. Paint aging: If car paint is exposed to prolonged sun and rain without proper maintenance, it can age and develop spots. Cars left parked for extended periods or exposed to acid rain may suffer severe corrosion. In such cases, using polishing wax to grind and polish the affected paint is necessary.
A few days ago, I noticed several yellow stains on my white car, probably caused by tree sap or bird droppings that weren't cleaned in time. First, try washing the car thoroughly with dedicated car wash soap, focusing on the stained areas and gently wiping to avoid scratching the paint. If the stains don't come off, you can use a clay bar with lubricant, gently sliding it along the car body to remove stubborn contaminants. Afterwards, hand polish with a polishing compound to restore the paint's shine. If these methods don't work, the stains may have penetrated the paint layer, and you might need to consider professional detailing for deep cleaning. Try to park away from trees to prevent new stains, and applying wax after washing can also help protect the paint.
