"Haze" after body work.
I got my 08 Atomic Orange Vette back from the body shop after a fender bender. The front bumper cover was replaced and the shop did an awesome job matching the paint etc.
A few weeks went by and I decided to wash and detail the car. I started noticing white hazy patches on the horizontal surfaces of the car, right behind the sideview mirrors and on the hatch towards the front. Would this be over spray from the clear coat? I used some McGuires Compound (by hand) and it took 90% of it off. What should I use next? A more aggressive compound? I guess I could take it back but the shop is in the next town and yada yada I'd just rather do it myself.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

You may want to use a polisher like the Porter Cable or Flex. You'll get much faster and better results than by hand. If that doesn't take care of it, you may need to take it back to the shop.
