Interested in this; the bonnet of my Royal Blue I though was really quite chipped but it seems its very tiny spots stuck on which have absorbed was and gone white. The must be tar I think but really ancient and stuck on with ferocious force! I want remove them. Tried autoglym tar remover; no luck, tried dodo juice orange (no luck) and white sprit (no luck). I am sure they are getting smaller but they are still there like a rash.

yeap and they are resistant to my efforts. I am wondering if its something non tar based like either cement or some kind of polyurethane or cross linked polymer as it really does not want to shift. I am thinking about a 1200 grit paper on it followed by a machine polish
