APC will remove those spots. I run into them from time to time

While the car is wet, (AFTER WASHING) spray APC on the area your working on and gently use a fingernail to remove. Keep the area rinsed

Hey man, where do you live at? This looks like something called Artillery Fungus. Look here There’s a fungus among us. | Car Pool Detail LLC

Can you feel an actual bump? Ive read getting a cloth damp with alcohol and then letting it set on the spot can help make it possible to remove. I think the time to allow it to set was like 15 minutes but cant swear to it.

^^^ ummm lol...i wish the pictures would come out better they stand out more then that,and you can feel some and some you cant.it looks noting like that fungus it looks more like specs of dirt stuck in the clear..

IronX will take care of your problem. You are correct, it is rail and brake dust.
