My brother parks his car on the street and every night the sprinklers go on. When he wakes up in the morning, he has water spots on the right side of his car. He tried washing his car but the spots would not come off. He also tried Windex, white vinegar, brake cleaner, anything you could think of!
Then my mom said, "Hey, try this Ajax!" With a little bit of water, the spots came right off! So the trick is AJAX!
Hope this helps.

How to remove acid rain water spots from car paint?
Try a mixture of half water, half white vinegar.
Clean the surface, and then use clay to remove the spots.
You don't say how old your car is. If it is still under warranty, I would ask the dealer what to do, as you could invalidate any warranty you have on the car's paint if you tried an unauthorized treatment. Even if it is older, the dealership can tell you what works best for your paint type and color. It is more challenging to remove the spots from a darker color car, so they can tell you the tried and true!
The car is one year old.
The first question would be - how long have the water spots been on the car? This is very important as it is possible the "spots" have already slightly damaged the paint.
