yup- that's a clay solution -
read up in our how tos on clay.
easy to do but its kinda strange if you haven't done it before.
wash car, and use
use plenty of lube- for a newbe detailers spray is prob best.

Clay bar is the right way to go. You'll love the results. You need to ask your body shop on how long to wait until you can wax the bumper. The paint needs to "gas out". 60 - 90 days is average.
