I got a very bad water mark on my car's rear. Been there for about 8 years. I tried vinegar no effect at all. Need some advise how to remove them.

Probably watermark has etched into the clearcoat. Might need to try compounding/polishing to remove that.

Nice toy. Another model should consider is Bosch Aquatak 37. I was using kracher before but switch Bosch because I find bosch more innovative and easier to use. For example the 3 in 1 nozzle (no need always remove lance), rotatable lance (can change fan spray direction easily) plus got more accessories and pressure output 130 bar. Price also cheaper a bit cheaper at RM660

Where is your Karcher PW now? Which model of Karcher was that?

Yes agree. Karcher, Borsch is like Toyota and Honda comparison. Both from Germany, both are reliable tool manufacturer but everything that you get from Toyota (Karcher) is at a higher price than Honda (Borsch).
Since the Borsch Aquatak model is later than the Karcher current series of pressure washer model, so no doubt the design by Borsch will incorporate more new idea. What more, Borsch even got a Borsch-to-Karcher adapter so Borsch PW user can use Karcher accessories.

My Kacher was the most basic one lol. The wear and tear took my machine offline. I repaired it myself once by ordering parts from Karcher. After repair the major damage came, the shaft connecting the motor and pump snapped. That is when I changed to Bosch.

No doubt Karcher is a good brand, I found Bosch easier to use with the 3-1 nozzle for simple usage like washing car and patio.

Karcher invented the pressure washer. Their core business still the industrial pressure washer, so home & garden usage kind of lack a bit in speed of R&D.
Yah I feel the Borsch 3 in 1 nozzle is genius idea too. But I bought my PW in a fair and no Borsch there so I still happily chosen KarcherĀ  biggrin.gif .
Usually where you will search for your Borsch PW accessories? Or the provided lance already enough for you at the moment you do not invest into more accessories yet?
Karcher accessories in Malaysia quite easy to find, I think this one Borsch needs to catch up.

The model I bought Aquatak 37 has almost all the accessories I need. It comes with the 3 in 1 nozzle, 90 degrees spray head (awesome for cleaning the car undercarriage), patio cleaner and a big brush that connects to the PW. Other accessories can be found at the dealers or you can email bosch directly.

I am now ordering the Bosch to Kracher fitting so that I can reuse my Kracher foam lance hehe. Bosch said 1 month to arrive. If not I will get the Bosch foam lance and sell my Kracher one.
