I tried linking it to your gallery but it wasn`t working either.



It`s hard to tell from the picture you posted. You might want to set your camera to macro mode if you have to shoot it that close. Your camera`s lenses will focus a bit better for upclose shots like that.



did these spots appear immediately after waxing?

Yes, after each time i wax they seem to appear, after a week or so they are not as noticeable.

Maybe your wax got contaminated or something? What wax are you using?

Looks kinda like my AquaWax does to me when it rains really hard.

I have used different waxes, the last wax was Adams. I`ve used NXT, Zymol, it doesn`t matter

they appear and then they are gone.



I waxed on Saturday, went to a car show on Sunday thats where i noticed them today you cant see them, its driving me nuts.:hairpull

I clayed the car twice this year, the last time it was clayed was in August this time i used all Adams products, Swirl and Haze Remover, Machine Polish, and finished with Machine Wax using a Porter Cable buffer.

Please write out your process and what products you are using. I think that would help people here get a better idea of what is going on.

Are you applying your wax/sealant by machine? Is it possible that it might be be product sling?

Yes I`m applying the wax by machine. What do you mean by sling?

If you put polish on your pad and just went up to a high speed right away (let`s say 5 or 6 on the PC), then there`s a good chance the product will sling everywhere.

It`s not that, I go over the whole car with a micro and then the next day after wax has cured i hit it with a detailer.
