Thanks in advance...

Clay bar > Meguiars Ultimate Compound (applied by hand if you can handle it) > A nice wax to protect from this in the future. I use Zaino products. Others may tell you different. You may be able to use something a little less i'll say *harsh* than the UC but it's always worked wonders for me.

Post some photos or better describe what "mild" means...

Are you going to be working by hand or machine?

Can you feel the damage when you rub your fingers over it?

can you post photos? close up?

How do you know its acid rain and not just really hard water spots that are etched in the clear?

Here is a thread at the Cafe regarding hard water etched spots. Had to wetsand then Megs 105, then Megs 205. Made for a long weekend.

I think it may be just hard water spots. It's in a silver car on the roof and slightly on the decklid and hood so it's difficult for me to tell for sure. I'm going to try the clay bar again. If that doesn't work, I'll try the Meguiars ultimate compound next.

Thanks for the tips guys !
