this is why i don't even wash my car. my well water is terrible. WHITE spots on a black car is no good. Acid light rain gave me terrible water spots this year. I use my poorboy's polish to remove it.

IF I wash, I go to the self carwash and use their water with my buckets/soap.

I usually just quick detail my car.
