    Which is worse for your car paint? Rain water or Ground water?

    My car sometimes is parked outside so it will sit in the rain. What do you guys do when this happens? Do you let the rain water dry on your car or do you hose the rain water off and then go for a drive to "dry" the car?

    Are these rust spots? Need help

    my friend's car's paint condition is in pretty rough shape. he's got holograms on his car so i'm thinking maybe the dealership put a glaze over the car so he wouldnt have noticed it at the time he was buying the car. is this a common thing? dealerships already putting holograms on teh cars?
