Posts: 59 Thanks: 6 Trader Rating: 0  | Help with cleaning? Hello to everyone  Wondering if anybody could recommend a trick to help me clean my B. Along the side skirts of the car are white speckles, looks like paint. they are smooth and cant be felt running the finger along the paint It is much worse under the skirt but still visible along the side Have tried Autoglym Tar remover which has removed a lot of other gunk but the white spots are still there! Had her for just about two months and she was covered in tree sap and fall out so have used a clay bar, super resin polish, pre wax cleaner then wax and im pleased with the results, here's a picture

Sounds to me that the retine from the tree has burned through the paint  I would recommend you to go to FIAT dealer and get the little paint brush kit (looks like a lady's nail polish). give it a bit on those spots and then use rubbing compound to smoothen it out. Hope it works for you! PS: this little kit from FIAT is a bit of a shocker when it comes to price!  Quoting DOC i would say "Thanks FIAT!"
