    Did you recently have a service? I had this show up on my interior windshield after service. I think the dealer records all service work for liability and used a suction mount camera.

    I saw a bunch of them one time, along time ago. A friend and I were smoking something that his brother gave him. I'm not sure what it was exactly but I'm not Ever doing it again! He hasn't been right since, still sees all kinds of crazy things.

    No problem. I'm not afraid to ask if I am not sure. So a synthetic wax is better then carnauba wax?

    Most sealants will protect the paint longer than a wax. Unless you were to use some of the Collinite brand of waxes such as #845 or #476. They can last up to six months

    I had some stuff on the inside of my windshield that was driving me nutsnuts, tried every type of cleaner I could. This was my last ditch effort before buying a new windshield. Works fantastic
