    Will these stains come out??? (Pics)

    I recently purchased a 2005 4runner. It rained one night and I had it parked partially up under a rusted tin roof. I awoke the next morning to this. The rusty runoff from the rainwater stained the paint. I have scrubbed hard and it will not come out. What should I do?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Adding pics here soon.

    Try an iron remover and then a clay bar. If that doesn`t work, try a polish, and if that doesn`t work a compound

    With all due caveats about how YMMV and "ya never know", etc. etc. that doesn`t look like the worst such contamination imaginable so I`d be cautiously optimistic.

    I`d use one really potent chemical decontamination system on it though. Maybe the FK stuff, which I hardly ever recommend. I`d agitate while it`s dwelling (both the alkaline and the acidic steps), definitely with something like a ValuGard Bug Pad and maybe also with clay (which will dissolve into a goopy mess *fast* due to the chemicals, so be prepared for that as it`s a whole `nother mess of its own if it gets really bad...but it oughta clean up fine).

    Yeah...if that were mine I`d hit it with the two FK decontamination products (one is FK1119...well, IIRC, but I can`t recall the number of the other one).
