FMP and revive polish. If that doesn't work, try SHR and revive on an orange pad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 PrinceValium Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 How did you apply the vinegar?? I would imagine you could just pour some vinegar on a cloth and remove the spots by rubbing them out. The vinegar should just dissolve the calcium on contact usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 PrinceValium Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 This morning my daughters car was covered with heavy water spots from sitting on the street for 4 days and the house next to her car had it's sprinklers over spraying on the car. It was so bad you really could not see through the glass. I took some vinegar on a terry cloth and cleaned all the windows off by pouring some vinegar on the towel and wiping vigorously. They all came out for the most part...but the car smelled like red wine vinegar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all came out for the most part...but the car smelled like red wine vinegar! Oh wow I've never heard of someone using vinegar! Another cheap way to get water spots off windows is denatured alcohol mixed 3:1 with distilled water. From your description I'd say the alcohol mix is a far less arm work out as well. This mix can also be used to clean up wax residue from door jams etc.. I also know quite a few detailers that use this mix after polishing to ensure no oils are left on the paint before they start their protection layers. If nothing else works you can use a mild clay bar. I'm not very familiar with all of Adams products but as a last resort you can use window polish or something along the lines of klass all in one with a finishing pad. Best of luck. -Travis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
