Default Any Suggestion?

I dont know what it is but there is this clear stain on the paint that won't come off. It looks sort of like a water spot but clear and it won't come off. Any idea on how I can get this thing off? Thanks!

MDS2K,
There are 3 clay bars that are considered to be good: Zaino, Clay Magic, and Mother's. I have not heard good things about the Meguiars bar.

Clay will get the surface absolutely clean and slick. The process is a little time consuming, but if you are looking for optimum results, start with a surface that is clean. It doesn't matter whose product you are going to use on the car, the outcome will be affected by the surface you start with.

The secret to using clay is to keep the surface well lubricated as you use it. Use very light pressure and straight line motions. Move the clay back and forth across the finish until it is absolutely slick, wipe off with a cotton towel, then move to the next section. Clay can be used on any smooth surface, glass, etc. Wash the car after claying to remove any residue left behind.
