hey all i was putting my arches on last night and noticed my bonnet has got tiny little bubbles all over it, what is this ??? is it some kind of reaction or just the bonnet rusting ??? there isnt any rust on it just these little bubbles all over you cant see them until you get up close and you can feel them to if you rub your hand over it,, the car has been sitting for a few mounths so i think its because its been standing, what you guys think it is ???

Is it clear, yellowy, black? Sticky to the touch? Possibly sap.
Or has somebody been painting recently? Your house, next door etc? Could be paint / fence spray splatters from a roller etc.
If not, would imagine it's the lacquer failing from condensation or something.

Sounds like micro blisters. My car has a spot which comes out in this cold weather. My car was repainted a few months back. It's moisture under the paint. Only way to cure is sand back and paint.
