water spot remover

wasnt there a rumor that optimum was coming out of a really good water spot remover? What ever happened to that stuff?

on the same note, has anyone had good success with CLR on water spotted paint? I am thinking about trying it out, but I cant bring myself to do it without stories of it working...I would rather use that as a soap and remove the water spots, then immediately rinse each section as I go with a regular car wash, then rinse again...instead of polishing for hours at a time...

I`ve had good success with PRO`s C-30 Water Spot Remover. I think the instructions say it`s for glass & chrome, but I`ve used it on paint several times with good results. Just be sure to not let it dry on the paint, and immediately rinse with a quality shampoo.

DG has a very good spot remover.

Have you tried the DG water spot remover? Same results..Just spray on and wipe off.

I have terrible water spots on my boat. Extremely hard to get off. Any advise ???

The Duragloss water spot remover is pretty good, but only on fresh surface spots, i.e. will do nothing for etched in or really hard spotting. I believe the base ingredient in the DG product is vinegar, and distilled vinegar will work just as well actually on light spotting.

It seemed to work very well for me with etched in spots.

Another vote for DG Water Spot Remover

You guys talking about water spot only right? What about water etching? I have this poor BMW with tons of H2O etching all over the roof. What`s best way to remove those etching? I already tried wool pad w/M.PG and still didnt budge.

I`ve always had great results w/Hi-Temp HCL (Heavy Cut Leveler) and didn`t need a wool pad.

For water etching, I use a brief spray down with DG water spot remover, wipe off. Then use a cutting pad and some Klasse AIO and it seems to have worked well in the past.

yeah i meant to say etching....what about etching...just polish away? seemed to be what I had to do to remove them from a super duty...the hood was another story....I would have had to compound for a while - pretty bad! so I told him to get it perfect would mean wetsanding, he said no....
