Need help on how to get rid of water spots.

04-22-2004, 03:38 AM

I posted this on Appearance and didn't get any help. If the moderators don't mind, I would like to ask here.

It rained a couple of weeks ago and my car port has holes and the rain dripped on my car's hood. The drip is mixed in with dirt and rust and it left a number of big water spots on my car.

I've used 3M rubbing compound, 3009, Meguire's paint cleaner, swirl removers, Zymol and just about everything. Washed the car 3 times already and nothing. The spots would not go away.

What do you guys recommend?

i usually use maguire's quick detailer, after drying my car off to get rid of all the dirt and water spots left.

If these water spots won't come off, try a clay bar.
