quick story....before i had that car it was my moms...she went shopping and some retards shot like 30 paintalls at it...lhood and drivers side........well she only had a few paper towels so she got as much paint off the car as she could but when she got homoe the paint she didnt get off staind the hood in some areas.......she bought sokme turtle wax and waxed the hood but nothing happened....honestly the spots when away themselves......i guess just leaving the car in the sun did something....thats all we can think of....we just parked it in the sun all day and kept it in the garage at night.....if u guys understand that then great......!!!!
Re: water stain on my hood
I always deal with dreaded water marks - not stains, but those marks that seem to appear on the horizontal surfaces of the car. Spoiler, hood, trunk, roof, etc.
I use 3M medium grit rubbing compound with an electric, cloth buffer. Buff the $hit out of the marks. Then repeat with a regular car wax, either with the buffer or by hand. Shines like a monkey's a$$ and no more marks, for a while...

You can try using a mild rubbing compund in that area and then polish it off. In the UK we had stuff that was called T-cut great at removing stains and tar marks...not sure what you guys call it here. It's a yellow liquid (deoxidising agent) with a very mild abrasive compound. After tcut apply polish and you're done!

Try a light 3M rubbing compound. Don't buy a cheap $3.00 compound they are too hard to buff out.
