Default Water marks stains under the hood?

So i've noticed some water stains under my hood. Tried to get them off with damp towels, soap, ect. Anybody tried to get it off? Anything that can successfully help me get rid of it. Advices or anything will help. Thanks

okay...so of course my first instinct would be "why do you care?" But that's kinda messed up, and maybe your just more meticulous about your car which I can fully respect.

W/that being said the only thought that comes to mind would be taking the hood off and wet-sanding/buffing the spots out...that's a lot of work for something that is not seen though bud.

Just kinda picky; that's all. Got a decent size meet coming up so why not clean it up a bit. Thanks for the advice tho. I'll see what I can do.

get a spray bottle, fill half with water and white vinegar 50/50 or water and rubbing alcohol 50/50.

dont wet sand the engine bay or anywhere under there. thair is no clear coat, you will burn thru the paint and expose ugly gray primer.

Super Clean in the purple bottle can do great but you need to hit it with water shortly after spraying because you can eat the paint, you don't want to use anything abrasive.
