Trick I discovered

[Atticus808]

not sure if anyone does this.

The water in my area is pretty hard so it can leave water spots.

While applying Rain-X on a car I was finishing up, I noticed a bunch of water spots and didn't feel like removing the Rain-X to remove the water spots then reapply again. So I took a 3" glass polishing pad and just used that to spread the Rain-X (works great as an applicator) and put a bit of pressure where water spots are and it easily removes them.

So,

- Use a 3" glass polishing pad as a Rain-X applicator
- Removes any remaining tough water spots in the process which saves lots of time.

Just thought i'd share.

If you have hard water, you might also like to add about an ounce of Optimums No-Rinse to your wash bucket. It will help with water and spotting, but you might see a small difference in foam. (not to worry its well lubricated to avoid marring)
