Hey any of the wash and wax wacko's in south florida, would anyone mind lending me a little of their time? I was out of town for a few days and apparantly a sprinkler got messed up and went wayyy outside of its coverage area and covered my car in sprinkler water. It then sat in the sun for Monday-Friday while I was away and as a result . . . I have water stains that I cannot get off. I have tried distilled white vinegar, I've tried paint cleaner, I've even tried scratch-x. As a result, all I've done is add a bunch of swirls from frustrated scrubbing, and the water spot etch marks arn't going anywhere.

Dario or any other W&W wacko, I've read that a medium cut polish will remove them. Can anyone with detailing experiance give their input? I've read up on it a few places (IE: http://guidetodetailing.com/articles.php?articleId=15) and they all say if Vinegar doesn't do it I have to go to the buffer.

If I had lots of free time I'd just take it up to my body guy . . . but he has 3 other s2000's up there right now so detailing work would probably take a while . . . and I don't have the time to leave my car for several days.

Can anyone lend a hand? I'll gladly come to you, and pay you for your time (food, beer, cash, whatever form of payment you want).

 

clay bar and some mothers cleaner wax and your good to go

 

Really you think clay bar will pick it up? I haven't tried it yet as I've read that if the vinegar doesn't pick it up that its going to require a buffer. I can try clay bar tomorrow afternoon though. Thanks for the recommendation.

 

use some dish soap on the spots to get all the old wax and oils off than dry it and hit it with the clay bar than mothers cleaner wax in a can. all in the shade of course

 

Tried the cleaning wax and dish washer soap, paint cleaner, scratch-x, and vinegar.

I'll try clay bar tomorrow! They baked on about a week so I think they have left an etching =\

 

Yea, use a little bit of Dawn and then use the Detailer with the clay.

 

I picked up a fresh Meguirs Clay Kit this weekend. So I use the dawn to wash the car or I use the dawn to lubricate the car in conjunction with the detailing spray?

The marks are just getting older and older so I'm anxious to try it out. I had no luck with the vinegar, tried again over the weekend, heh.
