That's not gas. What does the texture feel like? Have you tried goo-gone or a similar product?

Its smooth, I just used some kitchen products to try and remove the stain but no help. What product should I look for to remove it?

^^ try that. I was able to get tar out using claybar. You should be able to get out whatever that is with claybar.

I had those when I first took delivery of my car. No one @ the dealer could get it off and it wasn't big enough to bug me so I called it a birth mark and went on my way. I'm not sure if it's still there as I've ignored it for the last 2 years.

Damn, Canada Day. Nothing is open.
I'm hoping it didn't go through the clear coat, I can feel it by hand...

Did you try wax? Or maybe some acrylic thinner?

Yes, first I tried with wax and it did not work. I even let the wax sit for awhile before wiping it clean.
