Spent the day cleaning the KBP, still have spots...
Well First I would like to say that I am pretty happy with how the car came out except that I still haven't removed my water spots. I started with a wash and clay using Right Look wash and medium clay. I then decided to try and tackle the water spots. I started with Denase water spot remover to no avail and I had already tried vinegar before. I then tried Optimum's Hyper compound on my high speed buffer with a synthetic wool pad and they weren't budging. At that point I aborted operation water spot removal and proceeded to clean and protect to avoid any further damage. I used Optimum compound on the rest of the car. I followed that up with Optimum's Polish II on my Cyclo dual head random orbital. Came out pretty good so I finished with Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection. It came out pretty damn good with the exceptionof the damn etched water spots Thanks Patrick for your help and quality products. I guess the next step will be some light wet-sanding. BTW this is before tire dressing, so just imagine how pretty it is now... LOL

can you take a picture of this spot? It sounds pretty beastly if it couldn't be removed with all that work...

Thanks Patrick. It came out great I guess I was kinda hoping for a miracle with your the optimum products. They are quite good though. I really hate to have to wet-sand but I guess I gotta do it. I think I may need build a garage so it doesnot happen again. I guess I will do the work and make sure to stay on top of my paint protection...
