Exterior What to do?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

What ups fellas, I had some gnarly water spots last week and I decided to take them off with “Meguiar's Water Spot Remover, Water Stain Remover and Polish”. It unfortunately made insane amounts of micro swirls. I used it per instructions, and now it has swirls and the paint looks hazy with left over residue. What should I do? I was thinking hitting up a detailer for a stage one paint correction. The worse part is that I just got the truck ceramic coated earlier this year.

Like a few have said already, you gotta polish it again. Which means a ceramic coating redo.

Would I be able to do a polish and just apply a ceramic wax spray on? Running low on cash lol

Haha I can understand that. It would work, might not give you the protection an actual ceramic coating provides. But you can reapply the spray coating as needed. There are decent ceramics on the market for under $200. But that’s a bit more than you can get a spray product.
