sprayed deet on car now paint has bumps

Was at the park and sprayed repel 100 on my hood without notice, doesnt seem to be anywhere else.I didn't notice till a few days later that I had bumps in my paint, or on it., took it to my body shop friend and he recommended a really fine sand paper. Anyone ever experienced this? In the glare you can see the uneveness and smudges from my finger

Someone on another thread got it on their seats. It left a permanent mess. They called the maker and got good results.

In the other case, it could be considered a product failure (container leaked) and the OP received outstanding customer service: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...repellant.html.

Unfortunately for you, the Repel 100 label (http://www.repel.com/~/media/Repel/F...423941085.ashx) has a warning, "May damage furniture finishes, leather, plastics, painted and varnished surfaces including watch crystals, guns, bows and automobiles." However, the manufacturer may have some advice for how to handle it.
