What are these?

This will sometimes but not always be found on my car.

There are no trees above my car but there are trees near my car.

My place is near the coast and wind can be quite strong at times.

It can be quite frustrating as after a car wash it becomes covered with these.

These spots can be easily removed with tissue and plain water.

Anyone experience these? If so let me know as I wish to highlight to the management to look into this problem.

TS....this mystery was answered some time ago when I happened to ask a buddy who happened to be a pilot. These yellow spots are aircraft fuel that was dumped in the air for some reasons like too much load (weight) for landing. It's supposed to vaporize in the high altitude but some still drop to ground.

Hi all,

Car was hit with sap (some berry fruit?) on the car bonnet yesterday, immediately bought to car wash but no longer able wash it off.  The sap has solidify into a hard resin 😰..

With no professional available at that time, we tried a method which was publish on net and YouTube.  It was 80% effective in removing it, now left with a faint imprint of the sap.  

Hoping we can polish it off later at a paint shop.
