This should help...

01. Take your car to a High Pressure Washer car wash, just use the rinse and power wash it get it really clean and all dirt and grime away, Dry your truck off...

02. Get a Meguiar's Quick Clay Detailing System, And follow the directions and clay your truck.

03. Normally Wash your truck with a wash gel (Preferably Meguires Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner) and dry it..

04. Get some Meguires Clear Coat Body Scrub Paint Cleaner this will help on the clear coat of the truck.. Next I reccommend you to use some Meguiar's Gold Class Clear Coat Prep & Swirl Reducer and finish the job with some Meguiar's Gold Class Clear Coat Car Wax.

Let me know how this does... Hopefully this will solve your problem..

If this doesnt work, and the clear coat is chipped check with a paint and body shop on getting them to spray it again..

Or you take the truck back to the shop where you got it bagged, and point out the chips, and tell them they werent there when you dropped the truck off. Maybe, they will spring for having it re-cleared.

its not chipped. the paint is still smooth, its just like something got into the clear. i'm going to try and get it off so i dont have to pay someone to detail it. i'm trying to get some of my money refunded anyway. thanks for the tips.
