Default hey nyny, is anything going to get worse by me having to wait for the PC to be shipped to me?

i mean ive already probably ruined my new paint by trying to get this off with my swirl remover but should i worry about my paint before the PC arrives?

also is it safe to clay my hood before using the PC?

Use undiluted white vinegar to remove your water spots

Default you said the paint job was 6+ mos old right?

thats fine time wise for anything. Clay is fine.

Nothing will get worse either. If you bought a PC, read up on how to use it and practice on someone elses stuff to get a feel first.

You're gonna make me feel like **** if you bought a PC and were still not able to get the spots out.

Default well, the vineger i was using was 5% acidic, should i try somthign else?

if so, ill do that first. and if not, ill just get the PC, i foudn one for 100 bucks new thats just the regular 7424 with the handle and white pad. 100 bucks isnt a HUGE deal. and i bet it works.

the pad it comes with is NOT for paint. Call nick to get what you need.

once you get your PC you will wonder why you waited so long to make the purchase.

Default I have the same problem- tried everything.

even bought a PC, but that only helped to eliminate some- not all. Luckily they arent easily noticeable. but still- annoys the crap outta me.
