i have a shitload of waterspots on my car,the fact that my car is black just makes them more noticeable.I've tried Meguiars 3 step and none of them took it off,it just made them shinier!can you guys help me out?

 

i would recomend using a instant detailer before you wax.

 

I had them on my coupe also last night i buffed the car and now ther all gone.

 

instant detailer?insn't that for between waxes?damn I don't think I could buff mine out,they're pretty baked on there.I've heard of people using vinegar,like 2 parts water and one part vinegar.can you guys shed more light on this?

 

Have you tried a paint cleaner yet? Such as a Meguiars step 1?

 

Would clay bar work? I would think it would.

You should get the car buffed then w/ a heavy grit compound. Go see a pro if you're afraid to try it yourself or don't have the product/tools/know how.

 

you think i should take it to a body shop?theres a collision center near my housr.Won't they look at me stupid and tell my I should repaint my car&gt;

 

yea its gotta be buffed for sure clay bar wont work. i detail cars for a living and have to buff out water spots all the time and its a bitch. i wouldnt recomend you do it cause black is the hardest color to buff cause you can leave swirls and thats a whole nother story. deffinatly take it to a detail shop or body shop tell them you want it buffed.

 

Well if it's a reputable place they should be able to give a fair idea of what can be done. Get a couple of opinions. Tough to give advice w/o seeing the car. You can also try detailing shops. It doesn't have to be a collision center.

 

vinegar IS the way to go,I'm still gonna take it to a detail shop though to see what they say
