dry it after you wash it. dont let the drops dry on the car, its just the calcium and minerals in hard water that leaves that. same thing as on the windows right?

if you detail for a living, why would you suggest he get to rotary buffing his paint without even asking if hes done it before? you should know that throwing a buffer on the car with no direction from someone whose done it before is a bad idea. and if its just water spots, they wash off anyways, everytime you let hard water dry on your car, its going to leave spots. just dry it completely with a shamoi or automotive paint safe squeegee, when your done washing, and never look at spots again.
