I have some really stubborn water spots on automotive glass. I've exhausted my usual remedies, steel wool, glass cleaner, vinegar and lemon. Maybe someone washed this rig with TSP and left it to dry? Ugly glass anyway.

Thanks,
Barnaby

I have Ceriglass polish and a big buffer. I also have little buff pads for a drill motor. It works, but it's messy. Are you doing this at home or work?

The glass may have become etched if all that hasn't taken water spots off. Place your finger nail edge on the glass and drag it across the spot to feel if the spot dips or rises.

Thanks for the response, Pierre you are probable correct. And thanks Josh I'll take you up on the buffer.

Muchas Gracias!

There's a manufacturer's TSB for my daily driver that recommends the use of this product to remove stubborn water spots and other such stains from glass.
