Be careful with that stuff... just did a search for the msds sheet.

III. PHYSICAL pH (100%): 2.0
^pH of 2.0... that is very acidic! I'd be afraid of what it would do to nearby paint or trim.
Just a word of warning... I haven't ever used it, just read through the chemical sheet and figured I would share.

What works best for me to remove 13 year old water spots is polishing with Meguairs M100 compound. I have completely removed almost all water spots no matter how severe the edging is. I have documented this on detailing a 13 year old Camry that has never been washed thread.

What would you recommend on a new vehicle to prevent water marks?

1. Dry your car after you wash it.
2. Do not wash your car in the sun.
3. Stay away from sprinklers.
4. Protect your car with sealant or paint coating.
