It was once recommended, that TR3 can/may be used to help remove water spots. This stuff has been around for some time, I remember it on the shelves as a kid, but have never used it....Well I finally bought some of the stuff, and was going to try it on some real old and damaging water spots kind of as a test, to see if it really does work....Does anyone have any experience they could share with this particular product ? And it doesnt have to be limited to assisting with water spot removal.....I did a search on it and wasnt able to come up with anything.....
 
TR3 resin glaze....



used it in 1980 when the bride and I bought our 1st new car... a 1980 Datsun 310 GX.



Haven't seen it on the shelves in years!
 
The shine is not that great. And it does not bead at all, probably due to its synthetic nature. Meguiars #7 w/ #26 looks like a concours paint treatment in comparison, and beads like crazy. Because of this I do not know about the durability, I missed the Meguiars shine so much I just took off the Tr-3 and went back to the Meguiars.

F.Y.I. this was on white paint
 
we had some of that in our garage when i was a kid. my poor brother used it once on his silver '79 camaro berlinetta. it baked into his paint and left a very swirly finish. and not swirly like scratches, swirly like someone applied the paint in circular motions. of course, he did it in the middle of a texas summer outdoors. but that stuff has always given me the willies since i saw that.
 
Im going to have to give it a try, it may not be the absolute best, all I need is to get some difficult water spots off ! It doesnt really stay on the shelves here where I live. Maybe an alternative use us detailers dont know about ???

Maybe I'll take it to work and try it on my work truck first, Ive taken good care of it, and I cant think of a better demo to try it on !!
