Default Oversprayed My Car update

Okay well clay bar ******* rocks I will just say that! It did get rid of the overspray from this summer but it took about 5 hrs and some elbow grease. But none the less its all gone! Good times, so if any other dumbass pulls this one clay bar is a great solution! Also I have a sound (ground breaking i know). It sound likes a loose heat shield but i really dont think it is because I have messed with them all. So what happens is that once I let off the gas and the rpm's start to drop it sounds like a loose heat shield shaking. It doesnt happen while accelerating. Its super annoying and it been like this for awhile but I finally decided to post this after changing my oil and not being able to find the sound so yeah. Also it sounds like its coming from the cat area. THANKS

im wondering if youre confusing that sound with the same one i have.. only in Decel, in gear.. nothing while accelerating.. mine is a loose nut on the wastegate rod.. search it, there are a few posts on it.. i might be totally wrong too but the timing of it sounds like my problem too..
