If you care about your car please read this!
I am writing this because I do not want the same thing that happened to my car to happen to yours. If you have lived at Sombra Del Oso for some time now you probably already know about this but if you are new to this complex then PLEASE READ!!!
The sprinkler system here will spray over your car every night. NOTE: This will kill the finish on your car! If you have not noticed the water here is very hard and will leave white water stains all over your car.
These water stains DO NOT come off! Believe me I have tried. This happened to car over last summer. The entire hood and front is now covered in white ugly water stains. The sad thing is that this complex allows this to happen and they will not do anything about it! You can try to talk to them (and I hope you do) but it will not do you much good.
I can t believe they let this hard water spray all over people s cars like this. I had just bought my car new and now it needs to be repainted I talked three different paint companies in town and they all told me that water stains like this will not come out. I have tried all kinds of different products and none of them had any affect.
The only thing I can do now is to park away from the sprinkles. I can t believe I can t even park in front of my own place due to this poor design. They should have not installed sprinklers so close to where people park their cars. Because of this I will not be living here much longer.
If you have a nice car, or new car that you care about, trust me, this is going too happened to you!!! Please take whatever precautions are necessary to prevent this from happening. I am writing this because I don t think its right and I think Sombra Dell Oso needs to fix it and do something about it.

I have no idea what sort of paint you have on your so called -Car- but, my car gets wet from the sprinklers all the time and the stuff comes right off when I take it to the car wash. Maybe you should wash your car more often, the only reason stains stay on a Car is because it's not washed properly. Don't blame the APTS because you cant goto the carwash across the street!
