Fresh wax

Here are a few photos of a fresh detail I had this afternoon a buff & wax. The other night my gf was washing her car and got hard water spots all over my car & out here in Arizona with the heat and hard water doesn't mix well with black cars! I tried washing & clay baring but I couldn't them all so I tried these guys http://Excaliburdetailing3.com they did a great job.

I think his car is an early one, so it's not Basalt Black (I don't think that was introduced until 2002?) but it is very similar

From the looks of it I'd say it's called "Black Metallic" and is paint code 744

Just a guess though......what do I win?

Are you sure it's from your girlfriend washing the car. It looks more like a sprinkler system did it.
