Default Water Spots....HELP !!!

Water spots on my Torch Red single stage paint job. I've tried several of the major brands, both polish and wax without success.

If anyone has had this problem... and solved it, please help.

I'm at my wits end!!!

Next time try the Mr. Clean AutoDry car wash system. I tried it on my Grand Am and was pleased with the results. The Corvette is next.

Try a touch of WD-40 on a soft cloth. It took care of mine!
