How to Remove Water Spots from Your Car
Arizona's hard water is notorious for leaving stubborn mineral deposits on car paint. If left untreated, these water spots can etch into the clear coat and cause permanent damage.
Types of Water Spots
- Type I (Surface): Mineral deposits sitting on top of the paint. Easiest to remove.
- Type II (Bonded): Minerals have bonded to the clear coat. Requires clay bar or polish.
- Type III (Etched): Minerals have etched into the paint. Requires paint correction.
Prevention is Key
The best way to deal with water spots is to prevent them. Ceramic coating creates a hydrophobic barrier that makes water bead and roll off, taking minerals with it. Regular washing and drying also prevents buildup.
