Default Spots in my paint

I was detailing my car over the weekend and i noticed all these little white dots on my car. At first i thought they were water spots and than i compound and waxed it and there still there. Its really bad on my spoiler and a little on my trunk and roof. I keep the car in the garage so idk anyone else experience this.

have you tried using a claybar? it could very well be contaminants in the clear coat. i have railcar dust on my 06 grand prix from when i bought it in 06 and i claybared polished and waxed it and never saw them again.

Did you drive it anywhere near construction work? Could be overspray?
