So a few minutes after claying the section, it's all gone!! Thank goodness, I thought it would not have been able to get out because it was there for over a week from washing to getting it off tonight!

Thank you all for your help and suggestions and I'm glad I don't have to take it to the dealer to have it checked out. Totally my fault for not knowing how harmful tire/wheel cleaner is to the paint.

Lesson learned.
Yeah do not use that black magic stuff. Detailers' domain sells a very nice Opti-something gel that works wonders and doesn't eat your paint.
