Default Removing Water Spots From Glass

How in the world can I get the water spots off my back and rear side windows. They are dark, so the spots show up really well.

I found the best to be when it was just washed and then hit it with a shammy

Try a mesh covered sponge similar to the type used for nonstick cook ware
Iv also had good luck using a very fine steelwool.

I will try the vinegar first. It makes the most sense. Attack the scale on a chemical level!

there are glass polishes. I haven't used it but I hear good things about diamondite. look them up, they have a lot of products for glass. There is also a cheaper brand called One Grand Products and their cleaner is usually $15

i've used wax, a clay bar, and CLR on a rag to remove them. if they aren't severe then wax, if wax won't hit it the clay bar and if you throw everything you have under the sink at it then use CLR....
