Issue with water spots

[omnipotent]

[FONT=&quot]Hello. Looking for some advice on water spots on a black car. I noticed after washing my car for the first time after the winter that there were noticeable water spots on my trunk. I'm not sure if I took too long to wash or dry, but they are there. Will a waterless wash or detail spray remove these? If not what can I use? Would a good car shampoo remove these spots?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]My go to products to wax/seal the car lately after cleaning have been Meguiars GC Quik Wax, and Beadmaker. I noticed that after just 1 rainfall there are water spots galore. Also I understand these products don't do much for protection/durability. Looking for something more durable, something in the 1 month range, that will help repel water spots somewhat, and help keep my black car looking good. Thanks![/FONT]

You will need to polish (abrade) the paint to remove the water spots if they are etched in.

Do you own a machine polisher? What kind of car? Any pics?

I agree. My experience is that if washing does not remove the water spots, then nothing short of polishing will.

I would suggest you to try removing water spots chemically first. If they don't get removed, then try polish. Also don't go crazy with polishing.
