Default Re: What glass cleaner/cream for water spots?

I am sorry to disagree with that suggestion but, I would not ever use steel wool. it puts micro fine scraches on Glass that will not go away. You could wind up with a dull looking spot there.

If you use most liquid chemicals, it will not harm glass. you may have sand pits in yours and you should try a magnifing glass to see just what your problem actually is before you do anything.

I have seen guys on our Motorcycle forum use 0000 steel wool to clean their boot marks off their chrome exaust and regret it later.

Glass and chrome are both hard & fragile, and both will micro scrach easy. If you have to clean them try straight Laquer thinner on a white rag. Watch out for your paint though. That is what I used in my body shop and it will take off most anything. If that doesn't seem to touch it then you may have a film on your glass and you can try a single blade razor blade held flat. Take your time and you can get the surface perfect and then windex it and wax it with a hard paste wax.

Never use a abrasive on Chrome or glass. Steel wool is a abrasive.
