Best product remove water spots??
I have the stock 16" rims on my LT1 and sometimes I get to close to the sprinklers. I haven't found a cleaner the removes them or something to buff it out. Any recomendations on products or techniques??

this will get rid of the spots for good?
Because I used this wheel cleaner from Groit's Garage and it went away but the next day you could still see where the spots use to be.
