Was washing the Mrs Qashqai the other day an noticed lots of tiny white specs of what looks like paint over the whole car. Car is black is there any cleaning product i could shove on there to remove it? It comes off with your finger nail but dont fancy doing the whole car and i tryed a meguirs claybar and never got anywhere.

Use a stronger/aggressive clay bar or get someone to machine polish it. In worse cases it may need wet sanding but one of the first two steps should cure it.

Mrs works at a dockyard so possibly from there. Anyone recommend a more aggressive clay.

I had BAD overspray on the Impreza when I first bought it... previous owner rattle canned the alloys while still on the car

I tried a mild claybar at home, and it didn't work. A local detailer used the harsher Bilt Hamber clay and machine polished it and it was perfect afterwards.
