water spots on windows

[Mad Wax]

In over 90 percent of my situations with water spots on glass, I can never seem to remove them with just a spot remover. If it's a small area, and I don't want to bust out the polisher and pads, I just grab one of these (the yellow one) and combined with a glass polish (or any polish really) works extremely well! I have used 0000 steel wool with faster results, I just don't like the fragments it leaves behind.

My orbital buffer is an old Waxmaster A-100, I bought back in the mid-90's. My polisher is just a 7 inch variable speed Chicago Electric.
Appreciate all the input from everyone!! Most of the products, I use are from Adam's Polishes, Griot's and most recently Jay Leno's Garage.
Car has original paint, and the spotted side windows, is my head scratcher!! Thanks, again guys...

I am testing McKees 37 Water Spot Remover in the coming days on glass and Paint. It's a brand new product. Check back in a few days for my review.

I did try a polish on a blue pad, and buffed the window with the most spots. I used a glass cleaner afterwards, it looks a lot better. Its been overcast, out here last couple days, I need to bring it out in the sunlight, to get a better look at it. I will still like to purchase a spot remover, to get areas on windows, that I can't access with buffer.

I use Stoner water spot remover on a orange compounding pad. Takes 20 min to do 6 windows on crew cab truck.

I'm with Mike...avoid steel wool altogether.

McKee's 37 High Performance Glass Restorer attacks water spots two ways:

1. Chemically, by dissolving the calcium and mineral deposits that are responsible for creating the water spots in the first place.
2. Mechanically, by using glass-safe abrasives that physically polish away the water spots.

Here's a brief video that explains the process and how it works:



Autogeek has a kit that contains everything you need to remove water spots quickly and safely.

If the water spots have been present for a couple weeks or even a couple months, waiting a few more days to remove them the right way isn't going to make the job any more difficult.

Were those water spots eched into the glass? If not, why not demo the product against a real challenge to show its ability?
And if the glass actually was etched with water spots, you should've demonstrated that a normL glass cleaner couldn't remove them while you had a camera crew at your disposal... Just sayin.
