Re: Damn Sunspots!!....

IG is hands down the BEST glass cleaner you'll ever use. Although, I've heard a loty of good stuff about the new DP glass cleaner, I need to try it out...

If you're trying to remove water spots, some white vineager/water (50/50) should do the trick. A cleaner wax should do the trick too. If worse comes to worse, some #0000 steel wool and a LOT of glass cleaner should take them out without any scrathing

Re: Damn Sunspots!!....

I chamois my windows along with the rest of my truck after i wash. Even then they will began to show up after a long period of time. Then i use Duragloss Nuglass it will make your glass look brand new if your willing to put in a little elbow grease. Then after that rain X them to protect them from it happening.

Re: Damn Sunspots!!....

next time if u have stubborn waterspots on there take some #000 or #0000 steel wool and they rub right out w/o scratching the glass, we have really really hard water at the bodyshop and have to imediatly dry it off, if left overnight you can only get it off that way.....but yea wax your windows it helps allot!
