People use vinegar on the glass and newspaper......



On the paint, you can clear coat compound and wax,. OR claybar...

+1 for the clay bar. Pick up a kit at any auto parts store for ~$20. Gets all kinds of crap off your paint.



Get it, then do 1/2 of your hood and then feel both sides. You'll be amazed at the difference! It really strips the crap off of the paint!:banana:

A good polishing compound will do the trick

CLAY BAR!

If the stains have etched in the sun, a clay bar won't help. You'll need to combine a rotary polisher (the kind that can go 1,000-6,000 RPM) with some cutting and finishing polishes.

hard water/sprinklers are the worst water spots. :fire:

glass & paint.



so much for timed spinklers. i have to do a manual setting so i can move vehicles. :cry:

clay bar is the best for about anything from treesap, paint overspray, tar, bug spots, road film or whatever... I am sure it would do the hard water spots as well. extra benefit is it will take the other stuff beneath the hard water spots as well. :banana:
