What do you recommend for water stains ? The soap or the spray ? Thanks

It depends on your preference they will both do the job. But since it's the full car I would suggest the soap for a full car wash

My cybertruck was parked outside and combination of rains drizzling and dust left some hard water spots. What product do you use to remove those ?

Best kept secret is Sprayaway glass cleaner..works like a charm..I clean the whole truck with it.

No our products are specially formulated for the cybertruck stainless steel body.

Sounds good. What is the pH of your product?

I tried Maguair’s soap which I had used on all of my previous Teslas. Was not happy with how the cybertruck looked. So I bought a container of the Cybersudz.

I used a foam cannon, then wiped with a soft mitt, then sprayed with a high-pressure hose. I’m extremely pleased with the results. The stainless steel is very clean, and seems to actually have a shine to it. see pictures. (I also use Sprayway for spot removal).

Highly recommend the Cybersudz. It’s a bit pricey, but I’m pretty sure I can get almost 10 washes with the foam cannon per container so really not too pricey.

I am one of the laziest people on earth when it comes to washing. We live on a gravel road/driveway with no garage. I have been using this ceramic soap from wally world in a foam cannon for about 5 years, after discovering the wonders it works on our blue M3. Wasn't sure it would work on the CT HFS so I bought the ProtectaClear kit, but it works so well I never bothered applying PC. The coating gets it 80% clean with a quick pressure washer blast, near zero effort. The main downside is it attracts water spots (do not use in the sun), but since they're in the wax layer they wipe right off with a rag, dry or wet. Just be sure to dry after washing (or wash in the rain and forget about it). For those really difficult spots/stains, BKF is your friend! I'm lazy, never mask anything. Just squirt a blob of BKF on your car wash sponge, hit the stained area, rinse everything especially plastic areas below really good, and blast remaining BKF out of the sponge, continue washing.

follow this. Be very mindful not to let it sit or drip on the plastic. Painters tape is your friend

I had a new frunk installed by service center due to deep scratch at delivery on hood. When I picked it up the frunk had a muted CAMO pattern in the stainless. I washed it as normal and then used bar Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser....very small amount and it came out perfectly. I have seen this product being used in many YT videos that you can watch to ensure you use the correct technique. I find the exterior of the CT very easy to clean

When I had stubborn hard water spots on my M3, I used 50/50 water and white vinegar. Let it sit for a minute or two, wipe off, and rinse off car. I have not had to try on my CB. No spots yet.

I figured out the perfect solution for hard water spots!!!

New PPF color from Tesla called Cyber-black!

picked her up yesterday. Love it!

An update:
1. Mr Pink Car Wash Shampoo worked well and removed most of the hard water spots.
2. ONR "quick detailer" mix deluded with distilled water works really well for spot cleaning.
3. Bird poop removal is tricky. Tesla's recommended Isopropyl Alcohol didn't work. CitriSurf® 77 spot cleaning worked. I used very little on a q-tip and wipe off immediately. It leaves brighter spot that overtime matches the color.

ONR works great for me

Then you can obsess about a rip or cut or air bubbles. I got my CT because it does not have paint! We take it to town and park where ever with NO worry about door dings or scratches. Biggest advantage of all! NO PAINT!!

I just saw this video on YouTube about Blue/Brown oxidized stainless steel pan marks being removed with simple distilled white vinegar.

I am very curious how many have actually tried using distilled white vinegar on their Cybertruck, as I have only soap hand washed with hose or manual car wash with soap and water since owning mine in Sept ‘24.
When I took delivery there were some hard water looking drip spots that appears much like this blue tint on the pan in the video and am wondering if this will work to remove those spots on my Cyberbeast as well.
