The best way to get rid of fresh stains, water spots and smears is to remove them as quickly as possible, before they have a chance to bake into the paint or cause permanent damage.

This is why Meguiar's recommends keeping Meguiar's Quik Detailer® or Ulimate Quik Detailer® or Final Inspection and a microfiber polishing cloth like Meguiar's Supreme Shine Microfiber in the trunk or the back of your car, truck or S.U.V. Having immediate access to the right tools to remove fresh bird droppings and other unwanted contaminants at a moments notice can make the difference between an unsightly permanent stain or a show car shine.

If you have stubborn stains, spots or smears that a quick detailer will not remove, your next best bet is to wash your car and then use one of Meguiar's paint cleaners like ScratchX 2.0 or Ultimate Compound to safely clean the surface and remove the offending contaminants.
