  3. nope, don’t do that.

    just wash it and wax it,periodically.
    for the first time wash it twice.

    it will get back to new.

    remember……not rubbing compound…none …period.

    no…… nu-finish…..that’s a no-no.

  4. my car had spots that looked like water marks, but would not come out. I went to the auto store and bought clay bar. It’s a lot of work, and you gotta be careful, but it worked great. Then give it a good wax!
    You can also buy liquid clay bar from Turtle wax that works pretty good too.
