greengiant Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 I've still not been able to get the hard water spots off of my windshield. They've been there since my car arrived from sitting in Vegas. Anyone have a good tip on how to get these spots off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a baking soda paste since it will make for a very mild abrasive. I wouldn't try them both at the same time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't try them both at the same time though. Vinegar is an acid. Personally,I would't use any form of acid on a car,unless nothing else worked. How bout the old razor blade? Did that with the wifes car after we got it from the dealer. It had all kinds of stuff on it. The sticky stuff from the labels,I used WD-40.

ilmor Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 You must have some REALLY hard water! Windex always worked for me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengiant Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Looks like the white vinager did the trick. Just a bit on a rag. Did it at night though, and had to leave town the next morning. I'll check in the Sun this weekend. But, it definitely helped. I'll post final results.
