WATER SPOTS
 

Do the wolfgang products prevent water spots? Sometimes I don't get to towel my car down after a wash and those spots will appear.
Or is there any product used for washing able to prevent this? My car is black so it shows everything.[:@]

Ahhhh......... This one is near and dear to my heart....

The best cure to your water spoting problems are to invest into a water softner unit.

If you don't want to bear the expense of a softner the best policy is to wax often and only wash your car in the shade/early morning as I do. I wax mine once a quater with Meguiar’s Gold Class Wax and follow up every wash with a spray on wax similar to those you find at car washes.

"I plan to test out some of Wolfgang's products"

Removal is very difficult and time consuming once they are there but can be removed with some rubbing compound and a ton of elbow grease... It took me about four hours to remove water spots from my wifes 98 GMC pick up.

Well my car has about 560 miles on it. Should it need waxing now? And my dad swears by Meguiars wax. He has used it for years.
You use a spray on your car after each wash?

RE: WATER SPOTS
 

If I were you, I would wax it. I would hand wax it with something that removes easily. I would not suggest using a buffer the first couple of times.

I found this cool spray on wax product that was designed for use as an aircraft wax that works great in between my quarterly wax routine. It's label notes that it is a clear coat sealant with carnuba. After I wash the entire car it sprays on, let it set for a couple of minutes and rinse it off. I get an amazing bead....

Thanks dude...By the way, 17in. rims would make your car look even better than it already does. Your car is very sharp.

Thanks....... It's a stocker...... For now anyway.....

I am on the hunt for some different rims now......

Do you have 17's on your monte??

RE: WATER SPOTS
 

Yes...It comes with 17's on the s/c ss version. Chrome is optional but the wheels are 17's. It came stock with Goodyear RS-A
235/55/17 W rated tires. Thats rated at 168mph. Speedo goes to 140mph but "not gon doit". Like my insurance rates low than high.

RE: WATER SPOTS
 

I wonder if it will go beyond 118 or so. GM is famous for cutting fuel back at a certain MPH. With the "W" rated tires and the 140 speedo, I'm inclined to believe it will go beyond a cutoff point.

[sm=devilgrin.gif] My limiter kicked in at around 115 and toped out at 120. [sm=devilgrin.gif]

Speed limiter removed, I am guessing at least 135-140. Mine pulls hard to 115.

How can I find out if mine will go all the way?
