I need help from the Adam's Polishes people. I used a car wax product (not yours) today on the hood of my Liquid Red G8 and I can see water drop outlines in the paint when I look real close. How can I get rid of these and give the paint a deep glossy look using your product line?

Clay bar or a Porter cable buff. You waxed over a dry water spot.

Do a search here on Junkman and on Youtube, he uses adams stuff and makes it easy as pie to do.

You'll definitely want to start with claying... if the spots are just surface mineral deposits that'll take care of it. If they're a little more severe and have etched the clear (not uncommon) you will need to polish to remove them.

Polishing can be done a few ways, but machine polishing will always trump hand polishing for ease of use and results so the way you choose to go is going to depend on you. The process of polishing is what repairs damage and brings out the gloss, waxes only serve to marginally improve that, but do provide protection and depth.

Hope that all makes sense. If you need anymore help let me know.

how about water marks/spots on the glass even after washing and cleaning real well?
can you clay bar the windows?

Absolutely! We recommend you clay your glass, headlights, tail lights and any other smooth surfaces just as often as you clay the paint.

You have to realize that what you're doing with clay is removing bonded contamination without the use of abrasives. This makes it safe for all surfaces and means it will remove things that regular cleaning won't.

If the spots on the glass are severe enough you may even want to take a polish to them. Paint polishing products aren't aggressive enough to 'cut' glass, but the abrasive action scrubs the glass very well. I have a picture somewhere of really badly water stained glass after claying and polishing... let me see if I can find it.

Well, it looks like I will have to get an Adams Clay Bar. I also would like an easy quality wax that doesn't leave a white powder residue that I have to clean out of every little crevice and messes up black plastic trim. Do you have a product like that? If so, now we are on to something. I guess that's why I like using a waxed base detail spray.
