The hardness is normally due to calcium & magnesium salts that are poorly soluble in water and precipitate out as the hard water dries. There are some carbonates in the precipitate. Most acetates are soluble in water so if they are converted to acetates with some vinegar (which is basically dilute acetic acid), the spots break up and can be rinsed off with water (rain water if available). It should not harm the paint but I suppose it could affect a paint treatment so test on an inconspicuous spot first.

Our water is hard and leaves deposits inside taps which are visible when changing a washer. I soak the parts in vinegar & scrub with a nail brush & it comes off easily.

shot my car in the morning due to not being able to catch sleep after being woken up around 6. Also made like 3 stickers and applied to my driver's side window.

Install my ebay reverse lock-out! For 20$ this thing is a joke! I love it! Feel good and install was pretty easy

NutS, had to replace the bearings in my light weighT pulley set.

They had less than 5K on them. At least, I caught them failing close to home!

Took it to auto-x over the weekend. Loved it. Car was so planted and everything responded how I wanted it!

Took forever to put them in since the wires kept getting in the way to lock them in then the passenger side blew out when I left the gym last night.... have to re-adjust them so I can actually see at night.

Good times

Washed and Detailed it. Finally put my eyelids on. And ordered the wiring kit, for the fourth break light, and the smoke tint that covers it. Put the rear tail light covers on last week. I think they may be a illegal, but the LEDs are pretty lit up at night, and you can see them from 1000 feet, according to Florida law, that's ok?
