what is the best glass cleaner to use on hard water spots on tinted windows on cars.?

Question

I have tried the cleaner called invisible glass from stoner and it didn't seem to work at all. I also am tired of surfing the net and reading websites that boast they are the best. I want to hear from some real people. Thank you.

Answer 1

2 steps, can be done in either order.

1. 50:50 mix of warm water and white vinegar in a spray bottle, mist on microfiber towel and wipe on window area.

2. get some SprayWay foaming glass cleaner. Use this on a microfiber towel.

Either or both of these should remove the spots. If not, then that means the marks have been etched, burned into the film of the plastic, removing the tint in that area. Only fix then would be to re-tint.

SprayWay is the BEST glass cleaner on the market, hands down. I have used it for almost 20 yrs now, 10 yrs as a automotive cosmetics and paint expert and 10 yrs as personal and in a high end detail shop. Nothing on the market comes close to this product. Normally is around $3.50 a can but I do say get a case. Cause once you use it, you will throw out every Windex type product in your entire house. Works on glass, tile, chrome, just bout anything. If something is stubborn or hard, soak it with SprayWay and I bet it will come up.

You can buy it online or sometimes find it in auto body supply stores. I bet my entire automotive career on this product, its that good.

Answer 2

do not use any cleaners on your tinted windows --- if you look at some cars with tinted windows and the color of the T is purple then you can immediately know that the tint (T) was cleaned with some thing like Windex --- now if you will get a sprayer bottle and put a small amount of dish soap and then fill with water and use this on the T windows you will get a clear window and the T won't fade ....................good luck

Answer 3

50/50 mixture of vinegar and windshield washer fluid. Works great on boats. Avoid the WD-40. It will be very hard to remove.

Answer 4

Vinegar works great for glass cleaning. Use staright on a water mark. dilute for general window cleaning.
Vinegar is a mild acetic acid which will dissolve the water mark on the glass( an alakli)

Answer 5

glass cleaner from a can.
you never want to use glass cleaner with amonia it will turn the window tint purple.

Answer 6

You can try a 50/50 vinegar and water if they are not too bad. I worked at a chevy detail shop when I was younger and I used....ordinary Comet cleanser from the supermarket. Sounds weird, I know, but from talking with detail guys and trial and error found it works great. Don't rub it too hard into the glass though.
