New car with water spots that wont come off

If left long enough water spots will etch into the clear coat. A light polish will usually remove them, I rarely need to use anything more abrasive than that. Juruki,

Juruki, you need to go back to the detailer and have them finish the job properly by polishing the mirrors. Fellas, don't confuse water spots with orange peel they are two entirely different things. Orange peel looks like the surface of an orange, very dimply and distorts reflection in the paint. Water spots are random whitish rings on the paint, if left too long they lose the whitish look and etch in. Keep a fresh coat of wax or sealant on your paint and you will not have this problem. I reseal my paint every 3rd wash and have 0 issues.
