Our family are big soccer fans and as such, the wife and kids wanted to put a Manchester United car magnet. When I went to wash the car this past weekend I discovered a haze under the magnet.

No matter what I try, the haze remains.

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to get rid of what appears to be a milky haze in the paint.

 

The haze is in the clear coat and is likely from moisture getting trapped under the magnet. The question is how deep it is into the clear coat. Removing it requires removing the clear coat to the depth of contamination, which hopefully is not to the paint/clear coat border. Start with a fine cut cleaner (like Meguiar's M02 or the 3M equivalent). If that doesn't take it out you mat have to move up to a more aggressive compound (like Meguiar's M105).

 

Yup, imbedded in the clear coat. I tried everything I could find on line and suggested by my buddy with a body shop to no avail. Company that makes the magnet WinCraft wouldn't respond to my emails or phone calls so I contacted my insurance provider GEICO and they followed up for me.

Got an appraisal done yesterday by GEICO and they say it's 667 worth of damage. Now WinCraft wants their appraiser to look at it today.
