water spots

ByPopularDemand · June 8th, 2007, 10:18 PM

So I have these water spots that decided to make their home on my car...prolly what I get for buying no name cheap car wash solution that's supposed to dry itself...so it dried itself and spotted so I washed and dried it the right way and the spots are still there. How do I get rid of them? Should I go back to good solution

BWAL · June 8th, 2007, 10:20 PM

yeah, definitely try something better.. i think mr clean autodry works great

HMUSN · June 8th, 2007, 10:23 PM

you could try drying it with terry cloth of chamomile

Ole Yeller · June 8th, 2007, 10:32 PM

if the spots are in there now and you can't just use car wash and get them out, gotta clay bar the baby...

or a good cleaner wax...

but if your going to cleaner wax, go ahead and clay bar. it'll be worth it when your done

El_Cangri · June 8th, 2007, 10:36 PM

I like mothers clay bar/.

the mother's clay bar kit is awsome, comes with everything you need for actually a few uses.

but don't use mother's wax (to much build-up) personally i'm a turtle wax fan

I love turtle wax...thanks for the replies...I think a trip to autozone is needed

take before and after pics =D

turtle wax has a new liquid clay bar and application sponge its supposed to works wonders.

Ole Yeller · June 9th, 2007, 04:52 PM

never tried it so i couldn't tell yah, but i have to say. stick to what you know works.

SDSpecial · June 9th, 2007, 07:26 PM

you actually don't have to clay the car. that removes what detailers call fall out. which basically takes all the shine away from your car. rewash your car with GOOD car wash. don't skimp on that. dry immidiatly. get someone to help you. if you choose to wax. use this stuff called Ice by turtle wax or of course maguires. if you do clay your car, use this spray on wax by maguires when you do it. don't just take the clay to your car. it'll fuck your shit all up.

HMUSN · June 9th, 2007, 07:37 PM

I figured he would know to polish/ wax the car after a clay bar treatment.

texas_mustang · June 9th, 2007, 08:03 PM

dude, mothers clay bar FTW. and turtle wax ice, or nano wax is the shit.

^ nano is my personal fav.

you should try 80 grit and a belt sander. it'll take the tree sap right off

(please don't listen to me in OT posts)

Kuro · June 9th, 2007, 09:57 PM
