Waterspots? I drive a black formula and have no choice but to park next to sprinklers. Anybody know of something to put on my car to eliminate waterspots without having to full out wash the car? Ive heard of rain-x for windows but what about for the paint? Thanks alot.

Keeping a good coat of wax on the car will help. My neighbor bought a new black car and let the sprinkler hit it for a few days then let it sit for a few more. It took me 3 hours to remove the spots from the hood. We have hard water here but damn. Obviously, the best way is to avoid the sprinkler, but if you can't you can't.

Why do you have to park next to sprinklers, are they your sprinklers? I don't see why one wouldn't be able to fix this situation by not parking next to the sprinklers without living inside a water park.

I promise you this works wonders. I use it on my car. Google it if you don't believe me on this.
50% water mixed with 50% white vinegar.
If that doesn't work try a stronger solution. You can spray it on and wipe off immediately. It doesn't hurt the paint at all. Do it when the car is cooled off a little and out of direct sunlight.
It might take off some wax, so as a precautionary measure re-apply more. My car's paint is and was super slick and I still got a few horrible waterspots. They came out immediately with the solution.
Thank me later.
