Sup cbr peeps?? well i just moved from my old apartment which was real nice had a garage for me to keep my bike in at all times. But i just moved last weekend and parked my bike under a car port. then the next day it got wet from the sprinklers and the sun hit it. Now i got water spots all over my freakin bike....dam im still pissed about it. it left some water residue i think its etching they call it not sure. well anyways i put a tarp over it for now to keep more water from getting on it.

So my question is does anyone know how to remove the water spots?? Any tips would be appreciated.......

DAm i knew i shouldnt have moved, but the place cost too much but there was a reason for it i know..

I got water spots all over the side of my bike @ work too recently. You just gotta be patient, I don''t know how people do it but I just used wetrag to remove all the dirt and stuff and used Meguires polish and it got rid of all the water spots. Make sure when you apply polishing compound do it in circles, that''s how the spots get removed from my experience. I''ve heard all other ways though. And the spots on plastics came off pretty easy by rubbing wet rag in a circle for awhile

A damp microfiber cloth should do the trick for that.

Use a leaf blower to dry the bike once your finished washing it. No water spots, works like a charm.
