the compound 03RCODE posted works wonders i used to work ina detail shop and we used to get the most insane spots off of windows with that stuff

[Mr. Clean]

It's got alot more uses than just that. Basically anything you would using a rubbing compound for. Ive heard some say the alcohol and rain-x methods work but ive never had any luck with them. I had my buddy do the windows on my mach with that stuff and it was amazing the difference.

But...if you have chrome polish, you can use that. no joke.

[Nemesis]

Depending on what it is, it might be etched in and you cant get it out

[mushroom_toy]

I got some chrome polish you can have to try if you want. Its worked on my truck before.

water spots are like spots left over after your wipers go across? i've tried some rubbing compound on it but i dont think it's any better. it's always at night when it's raining that makes the windshield worse. rainX wipers dont even work lol so i might just try this...Zaino

[mocha latte cupcake]

baking soda + water + cup + mix + .50 tooth brush + Apply to windshield in clockwise motion + wipe away with micro fiber towl = YAY

@ least that will get rid of chemical residue on your windshield

We always used whink at toyota. It takes off water spots on paint and windows. You just can't do a windshield with it.

You have to use it in the shade. I always use a cloth wax applicator to rud it in in small 12x12 areas. Don't let it get dry. You rud it in circular motions for about 15-20 seconds then spray it with windex. wipe clean with a rag and spray with windex one more time to clean it off. The water spots disappear. Try it, you wont be dissapointed. Just don't use it on the windshield. They sell it at walmart.

Something about it being shatter proof. All the cars that were close to the sprinklers had hard water spots on them that would not come off. The whink took cars of them.

[Mr. Clean]

well i found the cheap remedy i was looking for... thanks to my step dad haha...



worked pretty freaking good... not perfect but 22982 times better.

Cut an onion in 1/2 and rub it on the window. I am being for real.

[Tracy]

[Alan®]

i will have to try that next time. I have never heard of that. Any idea why it works?

[SPOOLIN]

i need to try some of this stuff on my EG, it has those spots on the windows that won't come off at all even scrubbing them and windexing them and everything. A friend calls them acid rain spots.

[Mr. Clean]

well i did the alcohol and a razor. and i did vinegar... then my step dad said i was an idiot and gave me the comet and sho nuff it worked... kinda messy but it worked

[Deke]

Maybe I haven't had the kind of spots you're talking about, but I've never had anything that rain-x couldn't take care of.

[khaxnguyen]

Hey guys lol. this is funny. we might be talking about 46284128934271 different types of problems on our windshields lol!!!! in my case when i use the windshield wipers, it wipes the water off but there are still lil spots where the blades dont catch, thus leaving it horrible blurry at night. yeah the winshield is using those RainX wipers, new.

[AnthonyF]

easy solution, replace all ur windows.

use window cleaner that foams, that has amonia...

[ulbsry02]

just grab an SOS pad, get it a lil wet and start rubbing, then with off with clean towel. and spray some windex on there and i'll look like new.

[vubuilt]

i've heard you can use steel wool, 50/50 water vinager or you can buy a window cleaning kit from autogeek.net

[mushroom_toy]

You know Justin I used to wash my truck in comet. Nothing gets Toyota Super White paint that bright white like comet does lol.
