Damn car humpers! :laugh:

Are you sure it's not dried wax? You can also try some paint cleaner/polishing compound/followed by wax, this has always worked for me to get marks off the paint.

Are you sure its not primer showing through?

im 100% sure its not primer, i have a 1998 and my paint is in almost perfect condition exept for the front where the white crap is, it feels rough and i can scrape it off a lil bit so that tells u right there its not the primer.

When I bought my car it had the same thing on the passenger side rockers....the only I could think of was road paint.

Maybe it,s tree sap. that stuff gets hard as a rock.

stuff got on my bumpers and fenders... i just clay barred it and it's still there, but alot less noticeable

I second the tree sap.. try scraping it very gently with a key or something, but don't go to deep or you will get the paint.

ok go to your local parts dealer checker or autozone, or even paint store and buy what is called buffing compouynd haha i know that is somehing that u all dont know what it is but it will work. wet the surface get dry white cotten cloths and put some onj it then rub it with your hands and i mean u have to do it over and over again the u take some hand wax and u put it on there. then u take a puffer and u buff it so its smooth. but keep using the buffing compound till it is gone ide say 4 times or 5 outa do it

 

[Amazin' Wasian]

If it is tree sap, I found a product that is UNBELIEVABLE at removing it. It's called SapSucker. I swear it wipes right off with a towel.
