Thread: Water spots

Make sure when u use the clay bar to do it in the shade and use a lubricant ......(spray wax) any brand
If the panel is hot or no lube the clay will smear.
Then couple coats of quality wax.

Ok, so any clay bar would work?

Parts store, auto body supply store has them. Even wal-mart has mcguires clay bar and I think it comes with the spray wax.....I think.

Yeah any clay bar that you would use for auto paint will also work for the windows. Brand doesn't matter but I would recommend Meguires as they make great products.

You can clay the windows but it will not remove all the waterspots. I also live in a area with hard water and there are 2 products that I have used that work. One is Ceriglass made by carpro that is a glass polish and the other is duragloss nuglass and that is a waterspot remover. I would try the nuglass and it is available at Napa. If they don't have then you can ask if they are able to order it for you. If not Amazon always works. If that don't work then you would have to use Ceriglass and that works best by machine application(dual action polisher or rotary polisher with rayon glass polishing pads). Sorry for going a little deep but I figure help you out with what I know works and I use. Good luck!

I'll have to give that a try, my rear windows could really go without the water spots lol

Dodge Sucks, Chevy Swallows, Toyota's the Turd

I used 0000 steel wool and now have a haze on my window. Everything I read said 0000 steel wool was safe. The good news is that it removed the water spots.
