After you polish your windows, you can also wax them, just like you do with your paint. It will make them even smoother and resist dirt better. It also makes it a little easier on the window motor, because the window slides through the window seals easier.

I use "Bon-Ami" pot cleaner. $.59 @ grocery store. Makes glass look new. Just wet the window, and apply with an old wax applicator. Works GREAT!!

Hoof?

Ummm...are you sure about waxing it? Because what if you have any rock nicks won't the wax get into and fill the holes of "White" wax? Then your windshield looks like power sugar? I have seen this happen to other peoples cars. Please inform me.

I dont think you would see wax in the chips. The glass polish I use can also be used for a crome polish and it has carnauba wax in it.

If you are worried about scratching your windshield with steel wool you can just put the polish on with a foam pad.

I should have mentioned, I don't wax the windshield, just the other windows. I just polish the windshield. Sometimes wax can make your windshield wipers stutter.

Bump back up!


I have used Chrome Polish, got like 75% of the water spots off.

Vinegar didn't work. Armor All Glass cleaner didn't work.

I think i got some really deep water spots.

Anything else i can use?

I also notice, my roof has water spots as well on my paint. $hit!

Try the chrome polish again and work the buffer up to high speed. Apply it several times.

I'd also second the chrome polish.

This place down here sells some Mark V Products. One in particular called "Splash" worked wonders in taking off all etched on hard water stains on an older car of mines. If you can find some online you can give it a shot.

There's only one Klasse All-In-One. They do come in different size containers though, depending on how much you use.

Then there's Klasse Sealant Glaze, which is usually used over top of Klasse AIO for extra gloss and protection.

AIO is in a red bottle
SG is in a gray bottle.

Yeah, sometimes it's just too much work to type out: All-In-One.

Also look for:

Megs = Meguiars
PBs = PoorBoys World
QD = Quick Detail spray
PC = Porter Cable buffer
MF = MicroFiber
303 = 303 Aerospace products
