How to remove hard water spots on plastic engine cover (Louvers)?

[lp580]

What is the best product to use to remove hard water spots from the plastic engine cover?

This.


CarPro Spotless Water Spot Remover 500 ml.

Get it off ASAP, though - hard water spots will etch their way into the surface, causing permanent defects. If these defects are on black plastic, they are permanent (i.e. - one cannot polish them out).

Good luck! Once you have them out (if it's possible), prevention is key:

CarPro PERL Coat Plastic & Rubber Protectant 1 Liter

You're in Vancouver, right? If you were closer (I am in SK), I'd remove the spots for you, either with the water spot remover, or by polishing!

Thanks TTBear! I e-mailed Lawrence at LoV and he said his detailer can take a look but I will give the CarPro a shot and see how it goes. And too bad your in SK or else I would be over at your house first thing in the morning lol.

Btw, I met a fellow Huracan owner and his wife from SK at the Performante launch event in LA a few months back. Maybe you know who I'm talking about?

Hahaha - I know exactly who you are talking about! Good guy, and his wife is a sweetheart - he has ordered a Performante, and a couple weeks ago, he shows up at cars and coffee with a bright orange McLaren 650S!!!!

Awesome couple, met both of them at the event and also had a nice convo with them over dinner. Glad he got the Perf but I think his ultimate goal is the Aventador S. Talk about about small world.

Yep, I think you are right.

I was hoping to convince him to buy a black Performante, in anticipation of the incoming "S".

I prefer black.....
