Red Dots of Death in Paint!

Hey guys, Im not sure if anyone else has this problem but I notice a lot more on my white car but after a good wash like I did today I always notice these little red spots on my paint and it looks like rust but its not because it could be dead center in the back of my trunk and thats where it seems that most of them are but I can basically give them a good scrubbing and they come off but there really innoying and Im probably going to get a good detailing done before the summer but has anybody else had this stupid problem of having little orange or red dots on your paint that rub off?

Hopefully Im not the only one haha

Thanks

Yeah I got a ton too. I first noticed it back in like January and scrambled to find wtf was wrong with my car.

Good detailing will take it right off, so not to worry. We should go together LOL.

Fall out for sure. When I detailed at Benz we had a chemical that we sprayed on, let dry then washed off. Now extra scrubbing needed.

Wow I looked at his prices online, they're pretty steep! Ask him how much through you lol.

I'm pretty much looking for interior/exterior complete detail..

Exterior I'm looking to get rid of the raildust & a small door ding on my drivers side if possible.
Interior: Wipedown & Vacuum & Floormats primarily.

Aight I talked to him and he said 219 but that's for the silver package I guess online but he said he'll through in the clay rub that he said costs $90 alone but he said he goes over the entire car with that then wax and he said it will take between 5 and 7 hours for the entire package but that was for one car ill see if he can give us a deal with two cars because he did when me and my buddy both got our windows tinted through him
