[tease1986]

hi maybe silly question how do i get those dried rain drops off my car its a black car and i think rain drops have dried onto paintwork with the weather been hot is it just a case of simple wash only asking as at work and been busy this week

[holdawayt]

give it a wash, (2 bucket method). if that doesnt work give it a polish. Tom

cheers bud i have just been giving it a wipe over with detailer last weeek to keep shine up which does not move the marks so ill give it good wash this afternoon

[Pieface]

Just use detailer. A Polish won't stop it from happening, nor will a wash with two bucket method. The only way to stop it is to dry your car once you have washed it.

As Above.

Use a good quality Quick Detailer. Poorbooys QD+ is one of my favourites.

Works for me, i have a matt black car and if i don't dry it, i get loads of water marks :n:

Try washing it in the later afternoon, like 6pm where its not as hot. Washing during the hot times, the soap and water will dry on the car. At 6 its cooler and shouldn't dry on the car :)

Make sure obvy u dry it after washing it

[saxovtsmad]

after you have washed it and rinsed it off spray some detailer on it before drying

[tease1986]

why is that like mate

[Predator_R32]

Put the car in the shade then wash it or leave it till its late in the evening to wash

When it comes to rinsing it off, hose it off then use a watering can with the rose off and go over the car, if the car has decent wax the car will be virtually dry when you do this as a gentle flow of water sheets off better

Dry it with a waffle weave

Top up the wax monthly, its makes keeping the car clean a lot easier

Use a spray detailer everytime you have washed and dryed the car to top up the wax protectin a little

[saxovtsmad]

i always do it that way and i get no streaks or raindrop marks after its dry

[tease1986]
