Super White Tacomas! Help

I've washed my truck several times but I can't get some water stains off my truck! Also, tons of tiny black dots were on my roof. Oil, tar? Couldn't get those off either. Help me out!

 

try some good old paste wax and elbow grease! If that doesn't work then some light polishing compound will do the trick.

 

Two words and these same two words will resolve many of your paint issues: Clay. Bar.

 

Have you ever used a clay bar on your truck? Might want to try that out if you haven't.

 

The only thing that gives me trouble on my super white is the black tar specks. I find any good cleaner with a terry cloth towels gets them off just takes a lot of elbow grease. After the bulk is off hitting it with Meguiars Scratch X seems to make it go fast, then wax over it.

 

Thanks gents!

 

A good claybaring has worked well for me!

 

I used this to remove the outlines from the lettering after I debadged. It won't harm your clear coat, but you will have to wax the area after using it.

 

No clear coat on the Superwhite.

 

There is clear coat.

It just isn't a 2 stage paint job.

 

Clay bar then collonites insulator wax. End of dots, washes easy

 

That just simply isn't true. Its not even an urban myth and, as near as I can tell, its mostly a Tacomaworld myth. Its been many decades since I painted cars for a living but everything I read says that things have not changed. "Single stage" paint does not separate after spraying into separate layers, or strata, forming a clear top layer or coat. Single stage pwint simply contains additives that create gloss without having to spray an unpigmented topcoat to achieve a good finish. The gloss is integral within the entire finish coat. Back in the day we didn't call it single stage. It was just enamel or urethane (which were fairly new at the time) that didn't require a clear to achieve a high gloss.

 

I have small black dots on my bed but it's not tar. I've tried everything but it just isn't happening, its also on the plastic flares

 

I had to claybar the rail dust off of my old GMC Sierra(Summit white)and it worked great.A lot that complain of those black dots could be from rail dust during shipping.
