What is this?

[tmorales509]

I had someone tell me it was water spots and another person tell me that it was the clear coat pilling off(hope its not). Can anyone tell me what it is and if it can be buffed out? It just started coming up in the last month and seems to get worse everytime i wash my car.

Looks like the result of years of acid rain

do not clay bar that, start waxing and buffing imediately

thank you, i hand buffed it today, with turtle wax polish and some other stuff and about 90% of it came off, still can see it just a little bit but hardly, If i had a machine buffer or have it detailed it will probly all come off.

It looks like qxidation try somthing like meguires scratch x to get it out then use a cleaner wax folowed by a sealer wax that should get it all out and keep it from coming back.

I will bet you bux that over the next few weeks it will start showing up more and more as that is probably clear coat issue. If it does start to come back, start looking into watersanding.

Your hood is oxidized. A friend of mine had the same problem.

Here is the after pic. Can still see it a little but not half as bad, i think if i do all the steps that johnny mentioned, it will come off, i can get a machine buffer too.
