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.

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.
