2023 Jeep Wrangler — water spots keep coming back after correction

RustBeltBuilder621Community StarterNov 17, 20252023 Jeep Wrangler RubiconLos Angeles
2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, about 56,500 miles. Paint looked perfect after polishing, but water spotting returns after outdoor washes. I do not want to keep removing clear coat. What process change would you make first? I am in Los Angeles. I would rather test this logically than replace parts. What would you check next?

Owner notes beat generic advice here. On the 2023 Jeep Wrangler in Los Angeles, I'd fix the thing you'll notice every day before chasing spec-sheet extras. That's where I'd start. On “water spots keep coming back after correction,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Had a similar mess a couple years ago and that's what finally sorted it. That's my plan before I call anyone.

Thanks — that narrowed it. I'm going to try the simpler check on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler first. I'll update if anything new shows up.
