Alright so last week was claybarring my car, and noticed a gray haze on my front end. Realized that my car was in the bodyshop for warrantied rust, and it looks like my car was oversprayed with someone elses paint while there.

The bodyshop is in Vaughn and its a major pain to go there for me as they have no weekend hours.

Is there any easy way to remove this haze and paint bubbles without wet sanding?

I claybarred that area...and it didnt work (Obviously), also machine polishing and waxing also had similar no effect.

Any ideas???

Use 3m surface prep/wax remover.

I used it on a buddys 180sx and it worked wonders

Use a more aggressive clay.... Or meguairs ultimate compound with a lake country orange buff pad on a polisher should do the trick

I'd take the time to go back there and make them fix it... if they need your car overnight make them give you a rental

Thanks everyone appreciate it....Will defn try a more aggressive clay...its a small patch, and its on the plastic pieces as well.

Will try to go in to the shop though first!
