          Wet sand it and use an orbital buffer with some polishing compound.

                i tried wet sanding it today,but no real luck, do you think a clay car would do it? or is there anykind of chemical that gets of anything?

                      1800 grit??? it's more abrasive, but like it was said, be careful.

                        yeah.. I meen basicly keep using more abarsive stuff till it decides to start working.. its tricky.. and probably not something you are gunna do right the first time.. but.. you are pretty low on options..

                        IMO if you dont think you can sand it yourself take it to a compitent detailing or paint shop and they will be able to take care of it..

                        shuldent be all that expensive..

                          If you already started sanding it, and that didn't work, then its to much of a job for a clay bar. Good luck
