    Unable to remove paint transfer (anyone have any other ideas?)

    So I did an AIO on my aunt's car. Since she is always letting me do test spots on the car and even came out in one of my videos

    Not sure what this is from, but it looks like it's from one of the yellow poles at the gas station. I know it looks like the paint is chipped off, but it is clearly visible that it is on top of the paint, plus you can feel it on top too.

    ^ Wheels, tires, and paint cleaned up, clayed and 1 step polished with Meguiar's synthetic x press spray wax for a final wipe down.



    ^unfortunately I can't buff out the dent

    Here is the paint transfer





    ^Also in the 2nd picture I just noticed the paint cracking, I have to go inspect it actually and see what that is exactly. She did tell me that she hit something.

    I tried

    clay,
    AIO
    3M rubbing Compound and nothing,

    The only other route I can think of is to wet sand it out. Anyone got any other ideas?

    Try a cleaner wax or something like Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Polish

    Your Uncle will tell you to wet sand that puppy

    Plastic razor blade maybe ?

    To me it almost looks like its not paint but maybe some sort of yellow plastic that transferred.
