During raining i seem to see spots on the windscreen during wiping. Not sure what are those spots.

 

But when it dries up the spot is gone.

 

Is it my windscreen or wiper problem?

Is it my windscreen or wiper problem?

 

I also experience this on my 2 month old car !

i think is etched watermarks....they said use diluted vinegar solution can remove ...

 

will this solution affect the paintwork if it accidentally came in contact?

I always have marks on my windscreen.

weekly washing of the car also did not manage to get the lines off.

Ways of removing Water Marks from glasses.

 

1. Claying

2. Vinegar wipe

3. Soft 99 Glass Compound

4. Autoglym Glass Polish

5. Meguiar's Dual Action Cleaner Polish (M83)

 

Another vinegar trick to remove water spots.

 

1. Keep on wetting the glass with vinegar to keep it wet for 1/2 hour.

2. While it is wet, soak a 0000 steel wool with more vinegar and rub the problem area. Rinse with water and inspect. 0000 steel wool is extremely fine and available from Ace Hardware. Harmless if used as explained above. Definitely will not scratch.

 

I know it sounds drastic. But it solved my water mark problem many years ago.

Mmm. must soak in vinegar? I use vinegar to wipe. Its still there.

 

Im not sure what marks also. Its like can see streaks of water in the glass after wiping. They fade away after awhile. Is this water marks?

Hmm. Am looking for a shop to help me polish off the marks. Cos i tried to buff it off myself with nu glass and it dosent work. Maybe need those machine type polisher.

 

And i remember an uncle from a grooming shop told me that it is products like rain-x that causes such water stains. Not sure how true.
