you can find this at your local auto zone or parts store.


....also i dont dry the AV. It just sits there.....(i only dry the wheels)

BLLLLUUUUEEEE!!  I need help!  I bought some of your Meguir's car wash and went out and washed the Av-getting ready to leave tonight to STI-V.  I left it to dry & went out a couple hours later and I have a MAJOR case of water spots all over the AV!!  I tryed rubbing them out with quick detailer-but they keep coming back...what do I do?  How do I get those off???  AAARRGGGH!  I don't have time for this!!!

[MoAv]

Whew!  I got it taken care of.  I remember reading somewhere that Dawn dish soap will remove the wax, so I washed the truck with dawn, Ice liquid clay bar, then Ice wax.  I think my arm is about to fall off, but the Av looks sweet again!!  I like the maguirs car wash-just not the water here in Bluff.  Next time I do this I'll dry the Av when I'm done...those water spots were TERRIBLE!!  See ya!!

Hey Mo   I just catched your post!


Hmmm.....i still let truck air dry.  No water spots.




ps...do you have water softener?

Hey Mo, just caught this thread, hope you have/had fun at STI.  I used a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on my cladding for some wax issues.  Took it right off.  Had to rinse the spots and dry them afterward, but so far it looks great.

Nope-no water softener, just plain old city water.  I never drink the stuff, and now I know why.  I wish I had taken a pic before I got the mess cleaned up-I was in such a panic I never even thought about the camera.  But it's all good now and if it ever quits raining here at STI, the Av will look good again!!

I'll try that if I get wax on it again-I used that Ice stuff this last time & it dries clear.  You can even use it on the cladding.  Thanks!!

I use Ice on the cladding, but don't like how it works on the metal.  Bought a Random Orbital Polisher for the metal, but got it too close to the cladding last time I used it.
