Default I'm sure others will chime in on the stain, but get some wax on that car asap . . .>>>

you could have washed that off with a hose ;-)

ok, what wax do you recommend me to get also about the yellow stain seem to have penetrated its self onto the white color.

Default I've found that almost any wax is a good protectant as long as its applied often as nessesary...

Your stain problem is fairly common. Check out this previous post for some answers. If you don't feel comfortable doing this yourself, get it to a professional. In the past I have been nervous tackling different things about my car's finish, but with the clearcoats of today its pretty hard to screw things up.

I'm using Fuzion wax from Wolfgang, but you don't need anything fancy. I'm going to try the Swissvax stuff from Phil (detailersdomain.com)next.

Hope this helps.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/detail/msgs/61698.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/detail/msgs/61698.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default

what products do you have? Any mild OTC polish/cleaner/wax should take it off...
