I am sick. I washed my Metallic Green Ex a week ago and noticed paint specks all over it. The paint specks are so fine that it looks like dust, and it is ALL OVER. I guess that is why I didn't notice it until I washed the Ex. Two days ago, I washed it again and used Mequiare's Smooth Surface Clay Kit. I worked on it for hours. A lot of the specks came off, but there is still quite a bit still on it. And as I was claying it, I noticed every little scratch and imperfection in the paint. Has anyone else had to deal with this? What is the best clay or other product for this project? And for when I finish, what is the best wax for repelling dust and other contaminants? I live in a small town in Southwest Louisiana so when it's not raining and muddy, it's dry and dusty. I love the dark green paint and have gotten a lot of compliments on how good it looks, but it is impossible to keep clean. I don't own a polisher, everything is by hand. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
