Hi guys,
been lurking here a while, I collected my new ebony black A3 Ambition 1.6FSI last week and am delighted with it.
However, I was out of the country for a few days this week and left the new car outside the house while I was gone.
When I returned, I noticed the car had lots of pink flowers stuck to it (came off a cherry blossom tree), so I thought no probs, I'll give it a quick wash and it'll be fine.
But.... as I chamois'd it off, I noticed quite a few thumbprint sized marks on the roof and bonnet, obviously left by the flowers. I tried waxing/polishing/buffing them out, but there's no shifting them! Its like they've left permanent marks on the paint!
Now I must admit they are not totally obvious, and the polishing helped to a certain degree, but they are still somewhat visible.
Is there anything else I can do....??!
cheers, Joe.
