Mosaic Black Metalic water spots

Weather has been bad for the last two weeks and I just washed my car.

I couldn't took off the water spots after washing, tried polishing the hood with black fire polish and nothing. All surface is spoted.

Is there any product for this? or this is related to the bad quality of MBM paint?

Try 50/50 diluted vinegar. The blackfire polish is very mild, you can't use it for surface correction.

If the surface is truly etched, and it's probably not,it will take a two-stage polish and an orbital, and meguirs 105 and then 205, a lot of work.

There are different types of water spots. Here is a good thread done by Mike Phillips @ Autogeek about them. Be sure and put protection on your paint after removal!
