Magnetic Numbers - What happened to my paint?
I used magnetic numbers at an autox event this weekend. It was my first time using them on the car. When I removed the driver side after the event, I noticed this hazy finish on my paint where the magnet had been. I could have sworn I was able to wipe it off with my finger the day of the event, but now after I washed the car today, I cannot get it to come off.
What is it? And how do I get it off? |

Was it WET ?
If you leave wet stuff on modern paint, it will absorb water.. esp if it warmed up later in the day. It will naturally gas off or you can accelerate with *some* heat.

Yeah, happens all the time, see it more on darker colors.
Leave it facing the sun for few hours.
