surface bonded contaiminents

[Ranman]

I have a 06 vehicle silver in color and have these spots which seem to cling to paint surface. They can be removed with a lot of pressure during washing of my vehicle. The vehicle has never been waxed. My question do I need some type wax coat to prevent these particles from sticking to paint coat. I have some Mequiar's Ultimate Quik Detailer. Would this be a good product to prevent these bonded contaiminets on my paint surface?
Thanks in advance for a reply

For example, this is an old truck, but it has a modern clear coat just like your 2006 vehicle. It did not look like this when it arrived but after going through the proper steps it left looking like this...

Welcome!

I agree that a clay bar is needed. Follow Mike's advice, and it will be shining in no time.
