please help...

I unknowingly parked next to a sprinkler at my friend's apartment, and when i woke up, it was splattered all over the hood with this nasty brownish hard water. After washing it, i still couldnt get those nasty watermarks off the hood!! i tried scrubbing lightly with a terrycloth but it didnt do a thing! Its like it either etched into my hood or through my several layers of zaino. should i just put wax over it? please help!!

Try subtle polish like Z6 first; may have to start over & go back to clay bar; some might say

to also try 3M Imperial Hand Glaze first or whatever Denny says to use; I haven't found it yet, though.

Just use vinigar and water mixture.

Spray on and let it sit, then wipe off. You should wash your car afterwards.
