Hi guys.
General question for those who have 21 model with TFT (probably GS users with TFT also will be able to answer).
I did quick wash off my bike today. And I noticed that TFT after wash is covered by a lot of water spots.
Picture attached.
I did not used any sort of shampoo, or cleaning product on it. I even try to not sprinkle it. It was just standard mist and drops from general washing.
Is it normal? Something went wrong and I have to squeeze BMW?

I get them on my GS, although they're not visible when the screen is on you can see them when it's off and a black screen. I just use window cleaner spray and a micro fibre to remove them.

Thanks guys.
Looks like TFT is indeed sensitive for quick drying. I didn't expected it will be that bad.
Had to clean it up about 6 times using car window cleaner until most of the spots gone. It is still not fully spotless, but I have enough for today.
It is good enough for me right now.


Next time I'll cover it when will be washing bike.
