How To Remove Water Spots From Car Windows

[@lisamalley9782]

THE FINE STEEL WOOL TRICK WORKS LIKE A CHARM!!!! My windows look INCREDIBLY clear now!! I stumbled upon this video because I just purcahsed a really nice looking like new/certified used truck.... one problem though.... After I got it from the dealership's detailer post purchase at night, the windows had serious water stains on them I didn't notice until the next morning the severity of. I tried vinegar and lemon solutions from videos I watched and neither of the worked. Came back today to searcxh for more videos and stumbled upon yours. Thanks for the demonstration and comparison!

[@edwardfg2702]

Thanks for the extra confirmation on the steel wool! I tried the vinegar thing too that turned out worthless. Just ordered some #0000 myself to handle this same issue with a 2019 Accord I just picked up :)

I have literally cleaned thousands of cars in my lifetime and I can tell you if you use the steel wool with soap and water and then come back with a polisher with a polishing compound that glass will come out looking brand new. We used to do all of the used cars this way when I worked at a dealership

There’s a coating you can have applied to a shower screen than means it will never spot. It fills the microscopic holes in the glass that catch the water. Worth the money if you want to stop cleaning. Won’t work on a car windscreen unfortunately!

[@RogerioCosta1.0]

Nice demo! The main problem with steel wool is it can leave very fine particles over the car that can rust and stain the paint. You can use it safely only if you going to pressure wash the car right after. But any product to remove hard water stain will be corrosive too, so a good wash after the procedure is always mandatory. By the way, paint polishing paste compound sometimes helps and is safe to be used in small areas without washing the hole car.

[@melvinhunt6976]

On glass ? No it doesn’t!

[@inlovewithhumans]

It's only for glass that they are using steel wool.

[@itsumonihon]

@@inlovewithhumans you're missing his point, when you are scrubbing glass with steel wool, particles of it fly off in the air and can land on other parts of the car, then they rust.

[@Mikezyoyo]

For Heavy Hard Water Spots, use some buffing compound with the steel wool instead of lubricating with soapy water. Then go over 1 more time lubricating the steel wool with some polish. The compound adds that little bit extra to quickly get off the hard water off. Of coarse there are professional products and tools, but this technique is for keeping in line with this video topic of cleaning glass with DIY techniques

I had not thought about using a buffing/polish compound with the steel wool. I'll add that to the list of follow-up ideas. Thanks!

I've used steel wool to clean glass for years, but I don't use water. I wipe the glass with a shop rag as I'm scrubbing it to make sure I've gotten all of the hard water deposits. For tree sap and road tar I use a 50/50 solution of undiluted simple green and rubbing alcohol.

This is good to know. I’m told extra-fine steel wool on a buffer wheel will make quick work of thems winders. I used white stinky vinegar in the old glass water kettle the other day…Almost instantly zapped the calcium deposits. Muriatic acid is your friend and enemy for a quick fight against water stains. Once the calcium etches in, it’s a battle and a half. So keep up on your water stain removal, don’t let it sit for years.

[@dusting81]

Safest way to clean hard water spots is with a clay bar and detail lubricant spray, you can also use detail spray wax that's compatible with clay barring. Same as you'd do the paint on your car. Medium bar is ideal for glass and will make your glass look new and super soft.

Hey bud, they make a glass polishing compound called cerium oxide. Use with an orbital buffer and a foam pad. I have multiple classic cars with original windshields and wanted to keep them so I learned how the professionals do it. I think you can buy a premixed cerium oxide paste but I mix it myself. Hope that helps you in the future.

[@AmplifyDIY]

Thank you for the tip, Stephan! I do have a random-orbit polisher. I'll have to see if I can find some cerium oxide paste to try. Thanks!

[@SURVEYSEZ]

It doesn't help. The purpose of this video was to learn how to clean with items you already have at home. Not many people have orbital buffers. And if they did the question is how are they going to polish glass and not mess up the rubber molding and paint around said glass. But hey thanks for playing.

[@woodstream6137]

Thanks for the tip! Not sure who peed in this guy's 👆 cheerios but if it gets the glass clean on my 12yo car I'll get one. Considering I don't currently have: lemons, clr, bar keepers friend, magic erasers, or 0000 steel wool at home, his point is moot.

Never thought of using steel wool #0000. My windshield situation was a bad batch of windshield cleaner (1 gal from WallyWorld) which left a nasty bluish color water stain which dried up for quite sometime on the very rightside, top, and leftside where the wipers don’t make contact. I’ve used window cleaner, vinegar, soap, & ammonia, none of it worked. So after watching this video, I bought a pack of #0000 steel wool. Used a soapy microfiber towel and cleaned the windshield, rinsed and started the Miyagi method with some elbow greased. I scrubbed it 3x using 3 steel wool for 10-15 minutes each time. Holy schnitzel! It friggin got the majority of the bluish water stain off. It’s way much clearer now than before. Thanks for sharing👍🏼

I’ve been using 50/50 vinegar and water on glass for several years, inside and outside my house. Simple water spots, like from a sprinkler, come right off, and won't harm paint. For thicker deposits, I’ve used vinegar full strength. You can use regular vinegar or cleaning vinegar, they’re virtually the same for cleaning. I’ve even used this on my cars paint without any issue, lets see the same with steel wool. 😂

I too used vinegar for dried water spots on car windshield and paint with great success because those are dried up minerals residues from water with virtually no scrubbing because the paint can’t handle that. On the other hand, shower is mineral in water plus soap scums. Glass are quite tolerable to scrubbing. I found melamine sponge are fastest. The key is not to clean the shower once a year. Do it every month or every other month would required much less time in total compared to once a year. The longer it stay on, the thought it takes to remove.

I used steel wool first than wash it down before using rain-x or other similar water repellant solution.

[@johnarichards9795]

Another tip with the steel wool: ''it is the long filaments rubbing lengthways that polishes the glass'', as they break the filaments can turn and if they do the broken ends can scratch (don't cheap out, you might need to use the whole packet). Also works as the best chrome cleaner.
