Another complaint about soft paint

So there was a smashed bug on my hood so I flicked it off but come to find it left a yellow stain, looked like it penetrated the clear coat! Dammit cheap paint. Does anyone a fix to this? I tried scrubbing and scratching it off but nothing. Looks like its embedded in paint. Help!

Some bugs are extremely acidic and can eat into the finish in minutes. You'll need to polish it out.

I don't think you can blame the G paint for bugs leaving stains on it. There are no cars safe in Florida when we are in love bug season. If you don't get the dead love bugs off your paint within a short time your paint is ruined regardless of what make car you have.
