    Question White specks on black after polish and wax?

    Hi everyone. I started my detailing adventures

    First picked up a black 2007 honda that was badly neglected
    washed
    clay
    washed
    compound with griots fast correcting cream
    polished/waxed with hdspeed
    beadmaker

    picture attached is mainly on the hood. Rest of the car looks great.
    Suggestions?

    Could it be wax/polish trapped in some chips?

    That's what i was thinking. For future is there a product i can use that dries clear if that makes any sense?
    At this point i will have to strip it down

    Thanks on how to delete post

    Next time do an IPA wipe down after polishing. Some sealants will leave a white residue while others will dry clear. Most coatings are clear and should be transparent.
