Default Permanent waterstains on the scoop? Small White Dots on hood?

Hey everybody, I just got my stang about 6 weeks ago and I am enjoying it. It is black and only has 33000 miles on it but it is an 04 gt so it has been around for awhile. It has what looks to be waterstains on the front scoop and a couple on the wing, how would I get rid of them? Also all over the front of the car, are these white dots that are like scratches but they look too small. Is there any way to remove either of these?

The white dots are probably small chips from road debris hitting your car at speeds. As for the water spots, they can be easy to get rid of or in some cases very difficult. You can try some white vinegar as an easy solution using what you have around the house. Clay can sometimes get rid of them. More than likely you will need a chemical polish like Poorboy's Professional Polish. Use with a new terry cloth towel if doing by hand. Seal it up with a good wax once you get rid of them.

Polish the water spots out. After you polish, apply some wax. check this video out http://www.adamspolishes.com/t-Videos_DVD5_10.aspx
