New Water Spot Remover

[Vettefan]

Hello, Is the new Water Spot Remover considered a Paint Cleaner, Cleaner/Polish combo or Compound? If a compound, I am guessing it is less aggressive than Ultimate Compound. Please confirm. Thanks, Vettefan

Funny you should ask..... the overall cut is a bit below Ultimate Compound, but not by much. In the general consumer space people tend to look for a product that addresses a specific need they have - scratch removal, water spots, oxidation, etc - because they haven't been fully educated about car care. For example, you'd be amazed how many people still think a wax should remove all those defects and they call and complain when it doesn't.

For enthusiasts who spend time on detailing forums, those of you for whom this is a hobby that you're very immersed in, you know how diverse certain products can be - like using Ultimate Compound for isolated scratches, swirls, oxidation, water spots, on either paint, chrome, glass, headlights, etc. The average guy on the street, however, would think we were nuts if we packaged a product that claimed to "do it all", which is what that list of things you can do with Ultimate Compound sounds like. People would think that was just a bunch of marketing hype, that we were overpromising what a product could do, and they wouldn't buy it.

For those of you who are curious about a sprayable compound that might make it easier or more convenient to deliver product to your buffing pad, this could be just what you're looking for. Of course, you would not want to spray this onto a panel and then start machine polishing because you'd sling product all over the place!

What about ScratchX 2.0 my understanding is that ScratchX2.0 is less agressive than Ultimate comound, where do you put Water spot remover in the scale?

Thanks

Probably in the same ball park, just a paste version instead of spray.

Water Spot Remover Polish it a Chemical/slight abrasive POLISH.
It is designed to remove water spots, polish and leave a nice finish.
It's in a class by itself. ie: water spot removing polish
