Nissan's paint on the 350z and G35c was very crappy, they are very thin and strip easily...most people actually had to sand down their bumpers and then repaint and BAKE the bumper to get the better paint...I remember my G35c, small rocks and gravels that were kicked up easily stripped the bumper, and when I washed my car with a pressure wash, it actually stripped a huge chunk of paint off my bumper...

but as far as water spots, that would mainly be due to the clear coat and wax....I claybarred mine and gave it zymol wax, and water would just bead up into larger and larger beads and they just fall off...when you claybar, if you think it's SO SMOOTH and think you've done a good job, here's the real test: grab a very thin piece of plastic (best thing to use is the plastic wrap from a pack of cigarette), place your fingers inside the plastic bag, and rub your fingers (through the plastic) on the surface you have just clayed, if it smoooth as hell, then you did a great job, if you can still feel the grains or micro bumps, then you didn't really do it that well...
