Default Auto detailing in Houston

I've been out of town for 1 week. When I washed my gt3 this morning, I found a small black dot on the rear bumper. It doesn't seem like paint damage but the road tar cleaner doesn't work. Anyone know how to get rid of it? Can anyone recommend some auto detailing shop in Houston, around rice village or memorial park. Thanks in advance.

Jason Cavallo of Cavallo Auto Salon in the Heights.... Best in Houston hands down. I am one of his numerous happy clients. His attention to detail and customer service are top notch! Check out his website, FB & Instagram to see his work -- quite the resume. He worked miracles on my black '16 GT3. Feel free to PM me with any questions.

I typically go to Koshi (Excessive Detailing), but I have met Jason and have watched his work multiple times on multiple GT3 examples. He is incredibly detailed and loves what he does. Great recommendation.


Edit..wait I think I saw when he was doing your car. Haha

It looks like artillery fungus spores to me. Those are difficult to get off, but I would think a clay bar would do it.

Clay bar should take care of that unless the paint is damaged. GL
