Water Spots - Polished Aluminum Rims - Pics??

Can anyone here please post pics of exactly WHAT these "Water Spots" I hear that can occur on polished aluminum rims?

I'm wondering what these are on mine that are forming.. Pics would be MUCH better for describing. Thanks

If you dont dry you wheels they will have slighty non glossy spots where the water beads where. Just make sure you dry you wheels off good when you clean them. If your getting any spots on them just go over them with some polishing compound and it should clear them right up unless you let them get too bad.
