Post Weird shadow affect in paint

I just noticed this the other day after ading another coat of Z5. The car was in the shade and I could see some shadow looking streaks on the paint. I tried to rub them out but it didn't do anything. Then I backed the car into the sun, and I couldn't see them anymore and the car looked awesome. They weren't real noticable, I'm just really **** about the way my car looks. Any ideas what caused these or how to get rid of them. The Z5 didn't seem to work.

If you can't see them in the sun, it could be just the way the light and shadows are reflecting off the car. You can usually see anything wrong with the surface in the sun. Check it out under ALOT of bright flourescent lights and see what you notice.
