I have some decal stripes on my hood and they are covered in water spots. I have tried everything I can think of, and nothing has helped. I really don't want to take them off because when they were clean, they looked really good. Now they just look dirty all the time. Any ideas????
Sorry if I read you wrong, but are they metal stripes of some sort? I would think a general polish would be able to help remove the sediment left from water spots.
If they are vinyl (or something else) with such a finish, I don't know off-hand of a cleaner or method you could use safely to remove the staining.

Sorry it does not help. Vinyl is tough to clean with anything too strong, as the agent would break down the material and you would be worse off than when you started.
Try a diluted vinegar mix... you need an acid to get the minerals left from the water off the car. I usually vinegar wash my car after getting hit with my neighbor's sprinkler.. The hard water leaves spots, so it needs an acid to neutralize it. It works, give it a shot.. Just try to deal with the smell. That is the only downfall
Yes thank you for that suggestion! We have very hard water where I am from. Do you try to wax afterwords? The reason I ask is I am wondering if it strips the wax after you acid wash it. Thanks!
