stubborn water marks

[SOHCitTOem]

I recently ordered duragloss #755 nu-glass to remove some nasty watermarks off my windshield. So far I've done a total of 7 applications and the marks won't even budge. I've tried letting the product sit overnight and still no luck. I've tried using steel wool as well and no luck either. I don't have a PC or anything so I have to do everything by hand. Any suggestions?

ive heard vinegar and water 50/50 works on watermarks like that.

DP Glass Restorer worked for me in past, but did use a buffer.

I've heard nothing but good things about Danase Water Spot Remover. As a matter of fact, i bought 2 bottles last week just in case i need it, sprinklers is what i'm concerned about.

I have removed the worst of water spots with it, but I used a rotary. It dusts something horrible. I don't recomend it's use with a buffer for that reason. If you are removing water spots off a window with a buffer, use a regular polish like Optimum Compound or Optimum polish that doesn't dust. It will work just fine.

For hand however, it does good for water spots that wont wash off that have been on there for a little while, but not for ones that have been etched in. It will remove anything that steel wool and vinigar will remove without the smell and the mess. Anythig worst and you are going to need a polisher.

If you have done 7 applications with no luck, then you are going to need a polisher to remove them.

What kind of polisher? Do you mean a PC or buffer?

I currently have duragloss 105. I tried using that too and no luck. I used it by hand application tho.

I'm kinda short on cash to order anything else so I have to work with what's available. Any other suggestions?

If you can't afford the works, pick up a powerball or a flitz

Autogeek sells a drill adapter to hook up a 3.5" backing plate to any standard corded/cordless drill. You can then purchase a couple of orange or yellow 4" cutting pads, maybe even a glass leveling pad and go at it. You need some rpm's and a cutting pad that hand application just cannot accomplish. This would probably be the most cost effective way of going about removing those water spots.

A Makita rotary.

Duragloss #105 is nothing more than a sealant. It isn't going to remove etched water spots.

The drill adapter is a really good idea. For about $20, you can get a backing plate, a pad and some polish.
