Yellowish spots on my front bumper

I have 11' G37S cp, MW. few days ago, i noticed that there are several yellowish spots on my lower front bumper. i thought they are tree saps. Bringing my car to a car wash guy in my office building to wash them off. was told that they are not sap, but water(rain) mixed with Pollen sat on the paint, and dry up. he asked me to touch the surface, it is smooth, not feeling anything htere. it is kind of part of pain now. i was so pissed, only have this car for two months. he is going to looking into a way to get rid of them, but anyone has idea how to get rid of them>

Pictures would help, but you could probably buff it out since I don't see pollen/water being able to penetrate the clearcoat.

Without pics it would be tough, try buffing, or using a rubbing compound and try to get rid if it by hand.

I would start off with a clay bar like the DI Accessories Medium Grade Clay Bar for these stubborn build ups. If that doesn't work try the Stoner Tarminator which is great on tar, sap, road grime, bug smear, etc.
