I just purchased a 2014 Honda accord with black metalflake paint
Once the dealership cleaned up the car there are multiple sap etching spots on the hood. I tried achohol and it would not do anything to these spots as they are etched to the clearcoat and probably been there for several years
I am thinking clay first then,wet sanding the hood then use a rotary buffer with a wool pad to bring the shine back. followed by M105 and M205 applied by a dual action buffer. If this doesnt work I guess I am looking at a repainting of the hood.
These seem to be etched into the clearcoat so I am not sure if this will work. I guess I could try a 1x1 test area to see.
Has anyone had any experience with etched in sap spots. these are not new and could even be from acid rain.
Does wet sanding sound like the correct route to go ?
I will be a while getting to this as I just got out of the hospital with a heart bypass, but I would like to get some opinions
