    I have a 1794 in Magnetic gray. The water sucks where I live and it leaves water spots on the paint. I was wanting to know what you folks use to get the water spots off?

    a quality polish...then wax and maybe topcoat with bead maker or some similar product. Keeping the truck well waxed and protected will reduce or eliminate water spots going forward.

    Spray a 50/50 mixture of distilled white vinegar and water on it in the shade. It will remove them but it needs to set a couple minutes before wiping dry

    Would the vinegar eat into the clearcoat? Ceramic coating?
