    Read the forum for 3 hours tonite and just registered.



    Real quick, here`s what I`ve been using...

    3M SMR

    3M IHG

    3M Show-Car Wax

    Mother`s Clay

    Meguiars QD/Final Inspection

    Meguiars Gold Class Soap

    Vinylex

    Carbona

    Stoner`s Invisible Glass

    MSLT

    Ardex Details

    Meguiars Endurance or Vinylex on Tires



    I have had glass spots on the car since I got it 2 years ago. Tried Rain-X glass polish and it did NOTHING. The spots have diminished over the 2 years, but still visible.



    I just read about clay bar-ing the glass. What other things can I try?



    Thanks.



    And here is a pic of my work...

    Nice car! I like the wheels and clear lenses. What year is that?



    I dont know if the distilled white vinegar and water (2 parts vinegar:1 part water) on glass will work. Let us know what you find out.





    Here is DavidB`s post on cleaning glass. Very Informative.

    OK, tried clay and vinegar, no success. Any other tips you guys might have?



    Oh, BTW, the clay made the windows very clean and shiny, except for the spots which while not that visible, are still there and bug me. No one else sees them but me though...

    Maybe it`s time for something like Autoglym Glass Polish? That`s supposed to be good stuff. I know I bought that to remove water spots from my friend`s Civic but haven`t gotten around to that yet...
