So I visited friends in the OC last Sunday. We were safe and had fun. Came out after a few hours and found my beautiful Carbon Black 640 GC had been visciously assaulted by the neighbor’s sprinkler System. The entire hood, nose, and both fenders got a good soaking that had been baked dry to about a billion white water spots.

I tried not to freak out because our friends were with us, but I immediately took out my Quick Detailer spray and worked it as well as I could. It lessened the spots but they were still there.

Next day I googled the problem. 9 out of 10 Detailers recommended a 50/50 solution of water and distilled vinegar applied to the dry paint, left for a few minutes and then washed off.

I did so. All water spots gone! Also all of the wax, but as I literally have nothing else to do, I didn’t mind waxing her up. The vinegar solution also worked great on my glassed in shower at home.

Oh, yeah, before I was able to cure the spot problem, my TPMS told me to stop carefully, the right rear tire was low. As if spotting the bejesus out of my car wasn’t enough, Orange County also shoved a bolt into my tire. Took it to my tire guy - Green’s OK Tire in North Hollywood - these guys are AMAZING and fair and take superb care of their customers - and they patched and balanced it for me for free.

I know I’m blaming Orange County for all of my weekend vehicular woes, but what else am I going to do? Take responsibility for my own actions? Lol! Perhaps I should blame the virus.

All’s well, and all that.

Happy Motoring.
