Black Benz Paint??

[harleytrkguy]

Had a customer ask me if i knew anything about using well water on mercedes benz paint. He was told that it leaves little white makrs on it. I dont know if he`s talking about after you dry it or if you dont dry it, but i was wondering if anyone else has heard of anything like this too???



Also is there any special precautions that i should know about the benz paint that is different from the USA brand paints???

The Benz` I have experience with are a pure joy to detail! The paint really cleans nice, and reflect wonderfuly. Domestic car makers should take a lesson from the germans and Italians....

don`t most benz have like a bazillion layers of paint on the cars? Super SUPER thick.

The water the city uses here in Arizona is mostly well water. Our soils and water are very alkaline. (They contain a lot of disolved salts and minerals) Nothing worse than sprinkler water spraying (and drying) on your cars`s finish. When the water drys, it leaves white water spots that are very dificult to get out. I always wash cars with soft water when possible.

Just make sure you don`t let the water evaporate on the finish before you have a chance to dry it and you should be fine.:xyxthumbs

I never use hard water on any of my cars. Mercedes paint is gorgeous when its cared for properly.
