Question Yellow spots on white paint after burnouts

Hey fellas, here's one for you... anyone ever notice yellow spots on their rear ground effects behind the rear tires after doing a burnout?

I tried cleaning it off with bug and tar remover, Meguiars paint cleaner, Meguiars wax, and nothing worked. It's like the paint got discolored from the hot rubber that got slung onto it.

I am going to try some light polishing compound tonight. Any other ideas???

I should have gotten pics, but forgot.

The exhaust tips burned some of the paint off of the ground effects near it. It was yellow underneath. I'll bet the paint is probably coming off or got chipped in a few spots.

Cool

HI!... Use "PAM" cooking spray in the rear 1/4's and inside the rear wheel wells before doing a large burnout or going down the dragstrip. The rubber won't stick at all and the power washer will just blow it all off. Been using that method for years with no ill effects.
