Never heard that before. I think most cars have the same thickness in the clearcoat? Not sure thou

For water spots on rear view mirrors and windows the product at the link below will remove them without a doubt. It is pricey but it does work.
I know a few detailers that swear by the stuff.

Yes they are all different. I look after a wide variety of cars and no two cars are a like. Not only do they have different thicknesses but they also have differences in hardness as well. Corvette's are among the hardest. I once polished two 2006 BMW 545i's, one black and the other silver. They were pretty close in thickness but the black had very soft clear and the silver one had very hard clear . It's just the way it is. Thats why it's very important to measure before doing any major correction work.
