Have small orange specs on your paint? It’s rail dust/brake dust
At times you may have noticed little orange specks on the paint of your car and have wondered where it came from. When small metal particles land on your vehicle and rust, small specks can form. This is called rail dust.
The term originated when cars first started being delivered by train – small particles from the track would fly up and land on the cars. If it was wet outside, these particles would start to rust and rail dust was formed. Nowadays you can get rail dust anywhere. If you’re driving in an industrial area or near train tracks, you run the risk of coming in contact with the metal particles.
Fortunately, rail dust can be removed and if done properly, won’t come back.

Doing It Wrong, Can Harm Your Paint
It looks and can be annoying, but it will not help if you use a towel, razor, or a brush to remove the paint because it most likely will not be removed and you will do harm to your vehicle’s paint.
Trying to remove the overspray with a plastic razor or rubbing vigorously will add more work to your vehicle because you will cause swirls and scratches.
Even with the safe way, it can cause some minor marring and swirls to the paint because some overspray is harder to remove than others. A light polish will be needed if marring is caused.
Let’s say you aggressively try to remove the paint then it would need another process such as a Paint Correction to remove the swirls and scratches that you have caused.
