I have a Black mach 1 (perfect paint for hawaii's random showers) ne way, i have tried every thing to get the water spots out, and they are horrible, i tried clay bar, it worked but it took me about 2 hours to do a 12 in by 12 in section, i tried vinegar, i have tried everything i can think of. I saw somewhere online that they are using steam now, i dont know where the hell to get a steamer like the pro's use, and i dont know where else to go. I think it might be etching.... my question is #1, does anyone know if buffing it or having it detailed will take the spots out and two if so a good place to get it done? any help would be awesome!

Dave @ 808details is the best detailer I have ever worked with. My water spots are etched in the clear coat so they won't come out. But he tried his damnedest to get it out, looks 100x better even today. Even got the hazing off the headlights. If anyone can get your waterspots off without repainting, he'll do it.

I have a guy. He can take the water spots off anything. He drew on his Mercedes with a sharpie and got that shit off. Hit me up and I'll give you his number.
