Does anyone else with a white car or any other colour for that matter suffer with "waxy" brown spots appearing on their paint work,,,,or is it just me ???

 

or has my car got acne

Tree sap?

[Roy]

I don't think so mate ,

 

I do have trees at the end  of my garden but even when parked in front of the house they still appear from nowhere

Hi Roy ,stick some pictures up of "waxy " brown spots ! Never had a problem myself ..

[Roy]

Will do some tomorrow ,,,,,,,,, it might be just the sunny south that's affected ???

Birds love having dumps on mine, I have to clean it almost every day!

Tar spots perhaps, especially on leading edges and the lower parts of the car, I get them quite a lot, can be quite stubborn to come off aswell

Ok this is the alloy's but I use auto finesse oblitarate to get tar off  image.jpg   73.83K   6 downloads

Tar spots or brake outfall or possibly tree sap, very noticeable on white cars and hard to shift. AS much as you have trees at the end of your garden, a decent breeze and the sap can drift for a good few metres. Happens in our street, trees out the front but a good breeze and my car round the back of the house will get covered.

 

Iron-x or Dragons Breath will get rid but you will need to reapply your wax / LSP again.

Yuk Roy ,looks as said tree sap ..

[A18KNY]

Tardis or iron X will work on there, spray on , leave 5 mins spray of with power washer, can use a pad on it if it really needs be

[Frankie@OD]

Yes it's just tar spots. Once you remove them just try keep your protection up as this will reduce the amount you get
When you do see them remove them right away as letting them build up will mean a big job for you

I know for sure that those spots are from bees.

 

bee phoo to be exact.

 

If you don't believe me, try google

I've heard the same recently, and had similar on my car, but more yellow/brown in appearance.

It just wipes straight off the Gtechniq coating.

My sister had the yellow spots all over her car ,good job I was washing it and after just clayed the whole car ,it all came off a treat

[MacD]

I've had these yellow spots recently, I was sure it was insect crap.

It washed straight off so I know it wasn't tar.

Those Brown spots could be associated with dogging.
