Default paint problems already...

So last weekend I am washing my 07 gt not even 2 weeks old and I find some spots in my paint that almost looks like its under my clear coat and then I have a couple similar looking spots on my windshield… so I take it to ford and the guy says it looks like its some acid rain spots and can be buffed out? Ever hear of this? and they don’t do this kind of work on the weekends so I have to get a rental for that day to get to work …. I’m real happy about that……

It may have been sitting on the lot for a little while? Maybe some clay bar would get all that out.

Can we see a picture of the problem area(s). It's better to diagnose the problem by seeing it.

is it a ring? or is it at "raised" spot?

Try a 50/50 mix of vinagar and water on the spots and see if that helps.

He recommended vinegar and water mix because that works great for breaking up the minerals in waterspots an so on....It actually works pretty well.

Do you have any pictures of these spots?
