so there are all these little black dots EVERY where on my trunk. ive tried scrubing with mild abrasive. bug and tar remover. just plain eblow grease. how do i get it of? or am i gonna have to get it painted. i would get pics up but the spots dont show up in the pics

thanks phill

 

What if the black is the primer bleeding through?

 

if it is id be pissed. id still need to get it painted. any idea how much a partial paint is like just my trunk?

 

sounds like overspray....I'd try to claybar it first, if that doesn't help, you may have to take it to a detail shop....a good one should be able to take a look at it and tell you whether it can be buffed off or not.

 

im very new to paint and stuff. what does claybar ing do?

 

Primer on the trunk? wasn't the primer white?

 

dude.......i have the EXACT problem, i have tried scrubbing the **** out of it, scratching with my fingernails... NOTHINg works, and it looks BRUTAL on our yellow balts too.... maybe its a yellow paint thing.... haha

 

haha maby. still want to fix this though. if i have to paint it i will it just matters how soon depending on the price.

 

i have it too guys, go get a claybar, it'll come out. i think it just shows up worse on the yellow because of the contrast.

 

but what does clay bar dooo???

 

it was, it's just road grit, or whatever you call it.

it pulls impurities out of the paint. you can get it almost anywhere that sells auto detailing stuff.

 

is it hard to do? i dont want to **** up my paint any more than it already is

 

a claybar won't mess up your paint. read the directions and it can only help.

 

there not too expensive are they?

and how does turtle wax liquid clay bar work? would you reccomend just using normal clay bar?

 

i would recommend a normal claybar, liquid stuff isn't quite the same. it's not too much, can't be much more than 10-15 bucks.

 

wow. I JUST got off the phone with my dealership literally 1 minute ago, I pulled this up when I was on the phone but I have this problem too, it looks like garbage.

Luckily my car is going on 4 weeks old and they will probably fix it for free, hopefully.

Ill tell you guys if they give me any information on what to do if they don't fix it, which they should.

 

they may repaint your car, i'm going to bring mine in when i get back from Iraq and see if they'll give me a full paintjob, i have nicks from rocks and stuff, that are way bigger than they should be.

 

I sure hope so.

I paid $500 for a simonizing too. They better replace that also.

But if they repaint my car, do I get the same color?

Or can I pick a color?

 

Hello gang I too have the black dots on my bumper. you know what it is, carbon. Take a clay bar mentioned above voila, its off. Yes they are a pain in the butt, you will get them off. If its a new paint job make sure you follow procedures about washing or claying. I am pretty sure there is a grace period for washing or detailing.

Thanks,
Jas

 

Most dealers call it rail dust.... I had it on my Laser Blue Cobalt and they took care of it for me!

 

i have black dots but some of them came from my nightshades chipping off.. have u tinted ur tails?

 

you can pick the color but will cost you more depending on the color, if you going for a lighter color that means more sanding and priming so it depends.

 

can someone explain to me what is special about simonizing? or is this just a creative way to rip you out of $500

 

wondering when you'd pop in, now you can take over and give them real advice.

what is simonizing?

 

definitly keep me posted my car isent even 2 months old so maby they can fix this **** for me
