Arrow Removing rusty brake dust from paint????

Any suggestions???
A while ago I wore right through my drivers side front brake pad and started digging into the rotor.. Long story, not going to explain, but I already hada a new rotor waiting to go on.

Problem- My front dirvers side is now covered in rust/metal particles in the paint- like fallout.
Any idea how to get it off?? It's actually a very visable layer in some spots, like the drivers fender lip. I tried a 2000 grit wetsand in one inconspicuous spot, which easily took it off, but even after buffing that spot finishing with scratch remover, there is still a tiny haze... no WAY I am doing the side of my car like that!!
Options??? Clay bar?? CLR maybe???
Thanks!
