Removing water spots from Ceramic coatings

Hello, can you confirm that we can still have water spots on a car that has ceramic coating ? Thank you.
 
Unless you have acid rain, fall out or you are hit by hard tap water, you should not have problems with spotting after a wash on a coated car.

I have industrial fallout & acid rain from smoke stacks at work. Vehicles 3 years old with a ceramic coat. I hand wash every 3-5 days after every set of shifts but i must have skipped a couple washes and the marks dont come off with hand washing or ironx.
What can I try thats safe on ceramic? I doubt clay would work because it feels smooth to touch

I 2nd descale. Also dont clay unless you want to remove or compromise the coating.

I have to wonder if using a product like Meguiars D140 heavily diluted would be a possible solution. I can understand at a concentrated level right out of the bottle it may diminish the ceramic coating to a bit but I would not have a problem using a ratio of 1:20 or even 1:10 for a starting point.

But, on the other hand since I coat my own if I thought it would be a problem I would probably apply additional coating when I am done with water spot removal. I did however have a water spot issue on my black mdx over the summer, having way too many Miller Lite's, washing at mid day, Louisiana sun, and did not think about the D114 (even though I had it diluted at 1:10) I ended up polishing the hood and applying coating to the hood (the next day).

Just my thoughts.

Wheel brightener might work but trying to figure out proper dilution would suck.

I would just buy Acidic products made for this. Waterspot remover and Descale.
