I was talking to some guys this weekend at the track (all cobra owners) and we got on the topic about water spots on my car. I have had the car for 3 months. It had water spots on it when I bought it. I have tried to get them off but they want come off. I have Zaino to use when the weather gets warmer, but my question is will the deal fix it under warranty. The older guys I was talking to said that the dealer would & should fix it under warranty. One of them actually had the dealer fix his car with spots. Has anyone had this problem fix by the dealer or should I just clay bar with Zaino?

I tried that and did not work. I think clay bar will be the only thing that will work. But if ford will do it for free I'll let them.


I dont blame you....if your going to use the clay make sure you use it with a generous amount of spray wax.
 
I had them on mine also.

here is a link I found helpfull:

1. Wash car

2. Use white wine vinegar. Rub in lightly for 30 seconds in sections and rinse section.

3. Used rubbing compound. That takes off all the spots. It takes a while and I don't recomend it for everyone.

4. Next is cleaner wax.

5. Then polish.

6. Then wax.

I repeated the last three steps again this last weekend. Smooth as a babies aspirin bottle.

I was going to take it back to the dealer, but they took care of another problem I had that they did not have to. So I did not bitch. A little love and hard work and she looks awesome. Besides its not a bad way to spend a rainy weekend.
