Not a pro but sounds like wax/sealant getting trapped in the stone chips and curing, which causes them to look white.

You need to get them touched up properly so the surface is smooth.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Yeah, that's what I said lol. Just thought if they can add a black element to polish then why not do the same wax, I'd buy it!

Zymol make one and it works surprisingly well. Can't remember the name, think it's Ebony though.

Looks like the Zymol is for non metallic black ?
