Thread: Water spots

  1. #1

    Water spots

    I have some insanely hard water where I live, and I have water spots all over my windows. I have tried glass scrubs, CLR, vinegar, almost everything! What would take hard water spots off?

    You really did all that and it didn't work? Apparently I don't know what's hard water really is. Have you tried a flame thrower? I use spray nine, vinegar, acetone, etc. then window cleaner to get the scum off, then wax to replace all that was stripped off.

    Well I guess I have.. It works but it is greasy for a while, then works. Actually I meant on the paint when I'm taking calcium off. Then rain x wipe on the windows so the water beads off. Wash with hard water rinse with soft. Rain water is perfect.
