Where to use Scratch-X in the 3 step process?
I've always had great success using the Meguiars 3 step process. Between which steps should I use Scratch-X to remove some etching from hard water spots?
I do use a clay bar after a good washing before the 3 step process, but this doesn't seem to get rid of these water spots on the black paint.
TIA

One more question. Since I have such a large area to do with the water spots, can I use the PC to apply the Scratch-X with its own dedicated pad?

Most folks report that Scratch-X gums up pretty badly... this is my experience using it mechanically as well.
While Scratch-X, in my opinion, is a pretty good product, it's pretty much a hand-only type of product...

Heck man... it's worth a try. Seeing that you're in NC, our climates are similar from a humidity/drying standpoint and thus, I think you might see some of the same but, it wouldn't hurt to try. Meg's says that it is a product that can be used with the PC but, I think it might work best in sunny Arizona w/ low humidity...
