white car owners

Do you get water stain marks from the door handles and under the mirrors? I have a 3 month old car that now has these stains and I can't get rid of them. What burns me even more is that I paid extra for this particular color and now it looks like crap! If you had this and found a way to get rid of it please let me know. Thanks!

Re: white car owners

The reason why they are so hard to get rid of is that most manufacturers do not use clear coat on the white colored cars.

I can remove these stains for you. If you want it done, fm me

I have a white truck and don't get these stains. But when DH washes my truck I always clean off and dry in those nooks and cranies because the water tends to pool up and then drip down.

I don't get those stains. My car is also a pearlized white not a matte white. I don't know if that makes a difference.

They can be buffed out with a good wax. Then if you apply a good sealer/glaze it should help the problem. My DH swears by Mothers products.

Re: white car owners

I should mention that it is a crystalized mica white. I am going to try buffing it out with wax and then sealing it. Thanks!

Re: white car owners

Buffing with wax will not work. You will need to use a compound and then wax over it.

If you are near Levittown, I can do it for you. Let me know. I have a polishing machine. I have the right chemicals. It will take me 20 minutes tops.
