Any way to remove w/o polishing?

[efinirx7gt]

Today I used Mr. Clean Autodry and for some odd reason on the hood I got really bad water spots or films. Never happened to me before. I tried using some QD, but no luck. Then tried polishing it with Metallic Polish using a PC, still no luck. Is there any way to remove the spots with out going to a more abrasive polish. Thanks in advance.

You could try a paint cleaner like Klasse AIO. Clay might also remove the spots.

Are you sure they are from the wash today? I`d think if they were on there that short a time, a polish would take them off pretty easily. You can try some white vinegar too.

Im positive it was from today. Thanks for the suggestions.

What kind of pad did you use with the Metallic? I assume it`s the 1Z Metallic Polish? Maybe try a polishing pad if you used a finishing one? I dunno, weird it didn`t come right off...

Use mineral spirits from your local hardware store. I`s dirt cheap and it works. It will take any contamination off your paint. I makes tree sap wipe off like water. Read the WARNING on the bottle. After you remove the spots, rinse or wash, then re-wax the area.

Or you might try to wash again with the Mr Clean and dry with a MF or cham.

I don`t think I`d try rewashing with the Mr. Clean. IIRC, the film is something from the Mr. Clean`s soap. Using it again might just make the problem worse.



I`d stick with the non-abrasive suggestions: clay, AIO, other paint cleaners. Only try abrasives when you`ve exhausted the other solutions.
