Removing water spots on clear bra
Help needed from the masters.
I have tried the usual cures for water spots including (white vinegar, Speedshine & Claybar, waxes such as Banana Gloss), but can't seem to get rid of the spots on the clear bra. One application of Banana Gloss got rid of the water spots I had on my stripes, but nothing seems to touch them on the bra.
I am tempted to move to the next step and try something more aggressive like swirl or Amigo. Will that kill the bra? Thoughts?

I would go Swirl with PC. I do my clear bra with it all the time and haven't had any problems.

One note - when working around the edges, work in a direction that runs off the edge instead of along the edge or into it, so you don't get polish crammed up under the edge. Or you can tape the edge.

For the PC, would you recommend using the orange pad, white or use the red?

Start with the white. If that works, you're good. If not, go to the orange, then go back over with the white.
Red is for wax
