I need some advice on what will work the best. We went to Live Oak over the weekend and the Hotel sprinklers got on the car and left a lot of nice water spots.

The car is a 07 Black SI

I already tried the following steps, and products. I always keep quik detailer in the car and tried that in the parking lot, with no luck. When we got home, I washed, and used a clay bar, applied the Meguiars three step cleaner, wax, polish. Meguiars Gold Class, and Meguiars NXT tech wax 2.0. None of these products have worked.

So I am here for advice and tips that work!

Probably needs to be wool pad buffed with somewhat aggressive compound. Dont try this unless you know what you're doing. See someone in the paint/body industry.

none of meguiars stuff works lol... when i detailed at mercedes we acid bathed cars with waterspots UNDER SHADE!!! keep that in mind... then after a quick acid buff you polish the whole car with a foam pad and your good to go!

Your going to need to polish the car most likely if those products you used didnt work. A simple wax like you have been using is not going to work either, if anything it will just seal it in. Your going to need a machine polisher, and Im talking a good Dual Action Polisher, not those orbitals you can find at advance auto or walmart. You will also need good pads, foam will probably do fine, and some good polishes. I can perform the work for you if interested, just shoot me a PM. Good luck!
