ok. i will try using vinegar this time even though i have never heard of using vinegar. but here is my problem. i have already had about 5 layers of wax on my car and i suspect that the water spots are under my wax. is there any way that i can take of my wax without damanging my paint.

Dish soap. Dawn is a favorite. It will strip the wax right off (and all of the dirt) and leave your paint pristine.

hay guys. i just did a comparison test with a variety of things vs water spots.
in the end, impressively, vinegar stands out to be the top.
1. Vinegar(30 percent) 2. Ziano Clay Bar 3. Other Clay bar(forgot) 4. Vodka.
5. Mr.Clean's wather sparying stuff. 6. Magical Eraser.

NEVER USE THE MR CLEAN MAGIC ERASER ON YOUR PAINT ! !!!!! ! !

It is an abrasive!

Local sales guy? I thought that they only sold through the internet?
