Ghost marks left after...

Dumb fumigator sprayed around my whole car. Evidently the wind picked up the chemicals and placed them on my car. I was soo mad earlier, so I quickly washed and clayed car. All marks are gone, but I had my other cars' high beams facing the M and I could see outlines of where either the chemical was or rain. And also, my windows are rough and hard to wipe, even after claying.

I had a similar situation on my s550, which I polished and it helped. Should I polish the M also or is there another way??

Thanks a lot guys

Another option is to try "Tarminator" with a microfiber towel and see if the overspray can be chemically removed, if this does not work a pro detailer should be called.
