      in order of aggressiveness (from least to most), you 'd want to try:

      wash with car soap mixture and dry
      glass cleaner
      vinegar
      clay bar
      chrome polish
      glass polish
      later.

            its a green toothpasty consictency.
            What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

            You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

                  In the apartment complex where I live, we have hard water, it sucks ass. I use Invisible Glass. That stuff works great to get the hard water stains off my windows

                    only in the right grade. something like #0000. any more course and you'll scratch the glass. later.

                      tint goes on the inside of the glass, you only need to clean that surface. You also shouldn't have rain spots on the inside surface of the glass, unless it's spotted cause you rolled the window down while it was wet, transferring moisture from one side to the other...

                        Think you can post a pic of that stuff?

                          I used,



                          Over the weekend on my truck windows, it worked pretty well, but I was only able to go over my windows about 3-4 times, it took of most of it off but to get it completely off I would easily have to go over my windows about 10 times. I hate sprinklers

                          Anyway here is the website to that company: http://www.amaz.biz/waterstainremover.php

                          The product also has a green toothpaste look so Im not sure if its the same thing that accordztech is talking about and I purchased it a local glass shop.

                            I just picked up some invisible glass, I'll let you know how it works. I have well water and the car wash up the road has spot free water but it's not really spot free.

                              let me know how pasty it actually is, I like what i got but man it takes some work to get bad water spots out.

                              OH GUYS dont use a green pad (dishwashing) to get the water spots out, it works but man leaves some swirls and scratches on the windows...ask me how i know lol. one time i used a white scotchbrite pad lightly and it got quite a bit of the waterspots off with the stuff I use, but i was still catious...
