Add this together with Zaino, which is known for being rather prone to etching from hard water and bird excrement, and you're going to be chasing down water spots- I know I was. When I first got my '09 Jet Black I must have polished it like 4 times in the first 6 months dealing with etching, spotting, and swirls.

As far as the spotting going on top of the ventureshield, I really don't have an answer to that one. Do they come off when you polish the shield?
Thanks for the thoughts. What product(s) do you use now?

The paint is Sedona.

As for the film--I spoke with the installer today and he thinks it might be bad film. He's in the process of getting clearance to replace it. I'm skeptical, but it'd be covered under warranty, so we could try round 2.
