Aye, Meguiars Quik Clay will remove the spots you see plus the bonded contaminants you can't, and the difference before and after is huge on cars that haven't been done before. If you think the paint is clean but just suffering tar spots, Panel Wipe is cool - only available from bodyshop suppliers though.
