I think I will need to go over it again, especially in the corners and joins, but it looks 100% better already.

    What is your car care regimen? I ask because it looks like mold and mildew on paint (on the road film on the paint) that's not regularly washed.

    Re: Black spot hell on White paint

    Hi. Having read this blog, I'm pretty sure it was artillery mould / fungus. It was almost impossible to remove until I used the diluted white vinegar which got rid of it relatively easily. And you are right, I need to wash the car more regularly!
