Do you know where are the yellow spots coming from? Are they coming from adjacent trees? Do they not wash off? I'd hate to think you might need to clay that often as it is a fairly abrasive action. I clay about twice annually and each clay session now is only to stay ahead of minor stuff that accumulates in about 5-6 months time.

wow you "zaino"ed" again last week ?? i admire your tenacity about keeping your baby clean and shiney

how i wish i was the same but id usually rely on the "bf / significant other " to do those things for me

i THINK those yellow spots come from near by trees whenever i park outside. can it be bugs too...? no idea. thats why i try to park in the garage mostly if i can and try to get it removed as soon as i see it with a qd or something.

pander5 · 09-01-2007, 08:51 PM

Is it not coming off with a QD or a wash? Again, I wouldn't get in the habit of claying too often if it's unecessary. I've heard somewhere that it might be bug poop. Could it be pollen? At least it's landing on a good Zaino surface anyway and not on your bare paint.

soph1aa · 09-02-2007, 11:41 PM

Some come off with wash and qd but some are like "embedded" on it.
man if its bug poop that sucks. i'm cleaning up someone elses poop... haha but keeping the car in helps alot.

Many of those little yellow drops are from the smaller birds. Even after washing I ned to go back and get them, and they seem to sneak in sometimes between layers. I think it's the sparrows.

I admire your tenacity to keep after them. That effort will prevent future longer term damage if it is something that could etch or degrade your clearcoat. Your car looks fantastic!
