What do you all use to protect your paint?

[Firstimer]

There are sooooo many products out there!
I'd like to get an idea of what everyone is using. My Tacoma came with built in hard warter stains that won't come out with a regular washing. I need to get them off before any more wax is put on there.(I think the dealer waxed over the top of them)
Thanks for any input!

Give it a good claying. My guess is it'll come right out. Either that or Pb will prove my ass wrong. LOL

How much time & money do you want to put into it?



Give it another wash and make sure you dry it with some clean soft towels to prevent the hard water spots.

You could buy a decent buffer and go over it with some light compounds (which I have no suggestions to what kind).

My husband just bought this XMT series 4 step process with porter cable buffer and have been going over the vette with it...and all I can say is...WOW!!

Then ...get some Zaino!

There are a few ways to remove water spots. Polishing, claying, "acid wash". Read this. Detailing Write-ups & How-to Videos
