Hard water spots

Well I came out from work on Monday and walked up to my car to see that the sprinklers had gone off and the hard water baked into the car. I was pissed to say the least... I didnt even drive it to work on Tuesday, I was so devastated.

Here is one shot of the trunk when I got home from work, just to give you an idea.



The first thing I did was clay bar the entire car, I had just done this 2 weeks before, but it will help remove the hard water spots before I start buffing. Then on to swirl remover and polish and sealant. Took me a total of about 6hrs to do the whole car. I am happy with the results, you can still see just a little bit of rings on the trunk and hood, I will going over it again this weekend. I am a neat freak.

Products I used




few after shots

Thanks all. I went over it again today and can barely see some spots left. I am glad they have came out.
