Read through the below article and then go look at your water spots and try to determine if they are Type I or Type II

How To Remove Water Spots off Automotive Paints

Swirls, scratches and water spots are the three most common paint defects car enthusiasts struggle with when it comes to removing them and preventing them from coming back. In this how-to article we'll take a look at water spots, where they come from, how to remove them and also how to prevent them.




There are two basic kinds of water spots or water marks found on automotive paints.

• Type I Water Spots - Above Surface Mineral Deposits
• Type II Water Spots - Below Surface Water Spot Etchings

Type I Water Spots - Mineral deposits sitting on top of the paint



Type II Water Spots - Etchings below the surface



And do please click the link above and read the entire thread as it does tell you how to remove them once you know which type you're dealing with.

Please post back here which type you think you have.


Thanks!
