Gel-Gloss also works great on showers and hot tubs...i applied it with a PC and it makes the water bead and keeps the shower clean for quite a long time...plus, it's not slippery like wax...most poeple do like the liquid better than the spray...

 

I have the same problem and have tried a few things and will try a pc.

The other problem I have is the mirrors. I think they're plastic, what should I do with those?

Does anyone use a DI? filter to wash their cars for prevention of water spots for the never ending dripping doors? I have a water softener which helps quite a bit but our water is horrible.

Thanks

 

no advice about the mirrors? anyone

 

Zaino Glass Polish will absolutely remove water spots/acid rain from glass.

 

After you get the spots off, keep a coat of a Rain-x type product on your windows to prevent water spots in the future. Also on the tape that surrounds the windshield and outside mirrors.

 

I agree with the steel wool, as it's what I've been using. It's pretty effective in removing water spots, at the expense of leaving a good amount of shedding from the steel. My advice is to do a good wipedown afterword with some glass cleaner and microfiber, so the microfiber will pick up any remaining traces of the steel wool before it rusts onto the car.

 

Hey keep what you do in your bathroom private!!!

Seriously, you're right about shower doors. It would be utopia if this product worked so well that the shower would never need cleaning but it sure extends the time out.

Enough talk about cleaning, I'm losing points on my man card.

 

after i clean my windshield and passenger side window and driver side window, i coat the window with rain-x, wait a little bit till you see a haze, then wipe it off...even after a rainy day i have no rain spots or haze or anything on my windows.

 

If your spots are mineral based (hard water), try some CLR or LimeAway from the grocery store. These are made for removing calcium deposits, somewhat like vinigar might. I'm currently trying to get rid of some "water spots" that are looking more and more like clear tree sap deposits. Fine steel wool from a home improvement store may be the answer. I would think the mirror surface would be glass, but someone more in the know should weigh in on that.

 

When I tap on it, it sounds like plastic but I'm not sure. I don't want to use something that will damage it.

I normally don't have a problem with water spots. It came like this from the dealer.
