I love silicone !!
Aloha friends and members ,

I've concentrated most of my research on waxes and sealants along with leather cleaners and trim dressing that I noticed my bottle of MX-7 is low and it doesn't work that great . ( that was a long sentence!)

I did some bad windows the other day and used MX-7 and 0000 scrubber . 3 apps and still wasn't all gone. Any recommendations that you guys have would be great . Best results with least effort I guess. Thx.
 
How about AIO? I use it all the time on windows but I've never tried to get waterspots off with it, but its worth a shot!
 
I was under the impression that you couldn't use MX-7 for windows. I was told that it will haze windows.

I also heard that from my friend. It hazed his pass. side of his windshield. After further investigation I learned that it was in his storage shed for 2 yrs. most people recommend not using it on the front window in your line of sight.
 
We have similar problems here in Florida so we help develop the detailers pride Glass restorer.
Glass Restorer
Normally I would clean my windshield with clay but sometimes it does not remove the water spots so I turn to the glass restorer.
 
My favorite is Duragloss Nu-Glass. It got some spots out that clay, steel wool, some polishing compounds, vinegar, etc. couldn't get out. I haven't tried stuff like One Grand or Zaino yet, though. But I highly recommend the NuGlass, I thought it was pretty easy and did just what I wanted.

Anyone tried this Glass restorer yet?
 
I use Malco's Water Spot Remover. Polishes, AIO, steel wool all probally work in some cases on a regular detailed car. Why not use a product or chemical designed for a specific purpose?

well......... my 15 year old car has some really severe water spotting on it, and truthfully, i dont think any chemical alone can take it off. i tried AIO, tried ssr1, heck, i used ssr 2.5 with my PC at max speed. im thinking that a rotary would possibly be a better option. however, i do think that steel wool is a must. then again, there may be no cure for severe waterspotting that has been baking under our hawaiian sun :ticked.


hey, maybe if you find a good solution, you can come over :phone: and work on my water spots!
 
For some reason I thought this was a Professional Detailing Corner? And why are we still talking about using sealants, steel wool and polishes on windows? Jason and I both sugguested two excellent products made for windows. I 've never had one problem with etched or water spoted glass. On heavily etched windows Diamoninte makes a very good glass polish, sealant and cleaner. You're beating around the bush by using chemicals or products that weren't designed to polish glass.
 
I agree with what was said above. I think I also recommended One Grand's water spot remover at the beginning of this thread. I guess it comes down to what ever works for you.
 
Clear vinegar works for me. Most water stains/spots are from minerals. Use it straight, let it sit and wipe off.

More difficult etched ones need Zaino Z-12.

We use Autogeek/Detailer's Pride Glass Restorer.
Usually by hand via foam applicator.
Occasionally via machine (Cyclo/PC) for stubborn spots.

Works well.
