I had small bits of weeds stuck to my new car (from a storm), which
were then baked onto the paint by the hot sun. I got the weeds off by
washing, but there remains small brown stains,
specks, really, where the weeds once were. A friend told me lacquer
thinner is completely safe to use on a car paint. Where can I get a
definitive answer on this?
Thanks.

Since we've been able to get new vehicles in the last couple years, the
dealers assistance have been the best because they have all the
information on the paint and want to maintain their reputation.
I use Amsoil Car Polish which protects the finish from senarios just
like this.
