Help, small stains on brand new paint.

[jedmisten]

I have had my Bronco for three days now and I noticed that something hit the doors and it looks like something has stained my cactus gray paint. When I wiped off the debris, it left tiny dots.

I have tried to clean it with soap and water, but the stain seems to be sticking around. Does anyone have any suggestions that would be helpful?

Thanks

Rail dust, use a clay bar to remove them.

Clay bar as mentioned, or that fancy iron removal spray some people swear by. I've never used it myself.

Autoglym Magma could also help. I hear it works wonders for this type of stuff.

Is that the spray?

Bug and tar remover usually pretty decent too but like other person said try clay bar first prob rail car dust if your bronco was delivered on rail car

Hit it with Iron-X or similar product first. Will turn purple if it’s iron as it drips off. Then clay if still there.

No reason to scratch the paint with mechanical decon if it can be done chemically.

I'd try isopropyl alcohol on a qtip. If that doesn't work, like monster1926, I'd try claybar.

You guys are all awesome! Thank you so much I’ll give it a shot. Hopefully it will come out.

If all else fails try a Mr. Clean magic eraser.

which is kerosene, kerosene works great (just wash it off with soapy water after)

Dumb question but how do you use a clay bar? Lube (soap and water) and clay bar?

Ya, that shit will scratch your paint so I'd be careful with that.

Don't get me wrong - I've used it before on something else on my vehicle and it works great, but apparently it's not good for your paint.
