Fml...?
 
So after i washed my car this morning i started the waxing process. I use the turtle ice liquid wax. I waxed the driver side and the back. Waited 5 minutesish and began polishing. As i was polishing the trunk (right above the drivers side brake lights) a yellow stain got in the way of my polishing path. I dunno what the hell it was, prolly a seed or bug and god forbid it be bird crap, but i polished it in with the wax. It stayed in a liquid bead form but FML i have a faint yellow stain that streaks in a circle that wont come out. I have a pearl white :(((
And of alll the damn places it happened, it had to happen on the one part of the car i didnt clearbra....
How can i get the stain out? I tried washing it again, no luck. I use the turtle wax 2-1 car wash.

Try using a clay bar. Or you can try using turtle paste wax, the kind that removes oxidation.

If it's stained into the clear...a clay bar most likely won't remove it. Do you have any polish laying around or polishing pads?

My advice would be to go to your local Wal-Mart or auto store and pick up a bottle of Meguair's Ultimate Compound and Ultimate Polish if you can find it. You'll be able to hand buff that small spot.
