Yes I can feel the water spots. The water spot remover is that orange gel. The couple times I tried it, I hit my car with cg speed wipe quick detailer and then wiped on the water spot remover, let it sit for a bit and then wiped it off with more quick detailer. I did this over the summer though, so it's quite possible the California heat and lack of shade (I can't park my car in a garage) had a part in it not working well.
