What are the gray spots on a white car?
2 Answers
White cars have gray spots on the paint surface, which are dust particles attached after acid rain corrosion. These can be easily removed using a clay bar. Methods to remove spots on white car bodies: Spray automotive cleaner onto the spotted areas on the white car body; then let it sit for two minutes to allow the cleaner to fully react with the spots; carefully wipe the spots with a cloth. If the entire car is covered with large spots, wash the car thoroughly and perform a full-body polish using a polishing machine with a fine finishing compound, setting the machine speed between 1200 to 1500 RPM. Wash the car frequently and try to park it in a garage or cover it with a car cover. Cleaning wax and polishing are the most cost-effective methods to treat water spot stains on cars. If these methods fail to remove the water spot stains, the only remaining option is a full-body repaint. A full-body repaint is expensive and can significantly reduce the resale value of the car. Therefore, to avoid such situations, car owners should pay attention to regular paint maintenance.
Last time I took my little white car for an outing, and when I came back, I noticed several gray spots on the car body. At first, I thought it was just ordinary dust, but it wouldn't come off with water. Upon closer inspection, it might have been mud splashed from the road, especially after rainy days, or perhaps bird droppings or tree sap if parked under a tree. These substances are highly acidic, and if not cleaned promptly, they can corrode the paint and leave permanent marks. I recommend regular waxing to protect the paint. I usually use car wash soap and a soft cloth for cleaning. For stubborn stains, a professional spot remover can be used. Remember not to scrape with hard objects, as it can easily damage the paint. Try to avoid parking in dirty areas and keep it clean. White car bodies show dirt more easily than darker colors, but with good maintenance, they can look very bright and make driving out a pleasant experience.
