What's a good way to get rid of water spots? I've got some on the black top and on the bonnet stripes.

Speaking of bonnet stripes, how do you keep them looking clean and black? Mine have spots and swirls.

Try a detailing spray like MOTHERS or 3M. They usually do the trick. For stubborn spots you may have to use a cleaner/wax to remove them. The detailing spray ought to get rid of the spots on your bonnet stripes, also. If you have a buffer (Porter Cable) you might try that also. For a cleaner/wax you might want to try ZYMOL. That's really good stuff...

I saw the Zymol cleaner/wax at the store the other day. Almost got it, but I was admittedly confused as to what it was for. I like combo products, but only if I can understand them. :smile:

Thanks for the advice.
