Turned out better than I expected!

Someone on another board contacted me about rust stains on his girlfriend's Cadaver....I mean Cavalier. Told me the sprinkler system in his garage started leaking while they were away for the weekend. He got back in town and found this:





As luck would have it, when I visited David at his Optimum headquarters in Memphis, he asked if I would try a product he is working on, simply called Optimum Water Spot Remover. He is still tweaking it to be more effective on glass without making it too strong for use on paint. I'd already tried it on a few cars with spots from sprinklers but nothing like this. Using a terry cloth towel, I poured some of the OWSR on it and rubbed it across the paint--immediate results! A few areas where it was really thick took a little elbow grease, but nothing bad. Sealed it up with Prime and Trigger by hand (my son did that work while I was buffing out their BMW 540 (pics later). Turned out really good, sorry for the crappy cell phone pic though.
