Default paint speck removal?

heres a stupid question...

black car - has some white paint overspray / mist on it throughout the fenders and right side of the car, it looks ungodly. you can't tell until you get up next to it - but how do i go about removing them? i've tried a claybar which worked great on removing everything else but the paint mist. i know it was my fault for painting in the garage without the cover on the car but is there some way i can get rid of it without having to repaint the car? as i said i've tried rubbing compound on a buffer, by hand, and a clay bar..

anyone got any ideas? thanks

It sounds like you might need to bump up to a more aggressive claybar. Go to a local auto paint supply store, they should have one. The only thing about using a more aggressive claybar is that you will probably get some marring from it. Then you will need to polish that out. So bump up to a more aggressive clay, I think that is your only solution right now.
