How do you get rid of water spots after a car wash?
I washed and dried my car but its covered in spots. It is quite cool and windy out so i'm sure most of it dried before I really got a chance to dry it myself. So how can I remove the leftover spots?
thanks

Water spots develop because of the condition you wash your car in. Avoid washing your car right after driving it and in direct sunlight. Ideally, the panels will be cool to the touch and minimal sunlight to heat up the panels.
If it's just a few spots try a quick detailer to clean them off. If the car is protected properly (wax, sealant, or coating), then most of it should come off during the next car wash. If the water etched into the paint already, then you'll have to polish it off.
