Has anyone used this product? My mother-in-law wants me to get the water spots off her car (parked under well eater sprinklers) but does not want it polished with harsh abrasives, does this stuff work? Use it by hand or by PC? I have been very satisfied with everything else I have ever gotten from Danase but not sure about this one. I might just have to polish it out and not tell her.

Great product! A+ 1 step water spot remover. I'm planning on doing a write up on it soon.



Hey David, if a car with waterspots also could use some light polishing due to some light swirling, would the detailer want to remove the waterspots first with Danase Water Spot Remover then a light polish or just let the polish take care of both the waterspots and the light swirling?

I'm assuming this stuff is only for above surface water spots? Any etching would still require polishing right?
 
I used it by hand with a MF applicator and it worked well on my paint. It says it will also work on windows but it didn't remove the water spots on my car windows.

Zaino Z12 or Mother's Chrome Polish works well on glass water spots. Z12 works fast!

It really depends on the water spot etching. If a polish(after claying) can easily remove it, then there really isn't a need above and beyond that.



I did a black 5 series BMW a while back and about a month later the owner parked next to some really bad sprinklers and it spotted up the car pretty bad. I spot tested a bunch of polishes to see how I could remove the spotting and came to the conclusion that I'd have to break out the buffer again. I then tried DWSR and it instantly removed all the spotting and the only thing I had to do after was re-LSP. I've played around with it on iron/rail head deposits and it also seems to do its thing on that too.

Sounds like pretty good stuff.

Sounds very similar to the acid step in decontamination systems.
 
Yup, but those require an alkaline neutralization step after. Bob says just blast with a hose (PW in my case) and you're fine. No problems so far, except a little etching on the glass when I used this in the direct sun light and it dried. Came off with a little effort.
