- I tried everything including taking my truck to a glass repair shop and nothing worked or even helped. As my last resort someone recommended this product. It is absolutely the best product that I have seen or used on the market.
This company should pay you for advertising them. I'm about 5 years late watching this vid but I'm gonna go to that website and get a bottle. I hate the blurry windows. Million thanks Jeremy Parker!!
Dude I can’t thank you enough for this video. My windows looked like trash. Now they look brand new. I’m still amazed at how good this stuff works. 👍🏽👍🏽
My buddy's a 30 year detailer. He did mine with a clay bar, worked perfectly
Can't believe this videos is 6 years old. Good thing it came in my search results. That stuff really works!!!
Thank you. Can't wait to try it. I've been fighting this battle for years. Can't see out window at night when headlights reflect.
Thank you!! Nothing worked until I tried this! I was starting to think I'd have to replace my windshield.
Ok I went and used the product and worked it kind of how the author applied it. I waited for this morning
(the morning after) to view the wind shield covered with morning dew. And I have to tell you that this IS THE only product that actually works!! 0000 steel wool, water, and i wiped it off with micro fiber towels. Afterward i took the truck to the car wash and that was it. I hope this helps you as complete as it did for me.
Who can dislike this tutorial? Good job and thanks for the tip!💯👍🏻
Probably Glass Repair shops trying to sell new glass.
@@Xedilian steel whool dont scratch windows tho. Most car detailers use them
@@robbculbreth9933I just scratched a corner of my windshield doing this. Not directional scratches but a lot of shiny needle like scratches
Just used this product on a 13 year old Toyota Corolla. I had tried many other methods seen on RUclips and nothing worked. It did the job perfectly. Now the glass looks new. Amazing product!
Where did you get it?
Where did you purchase it from
You sir. Are my hero. I went to a auto detail guy and he told me the same thing your dude told you. I am so trying this. thank you!
Thank you for sharing this, I had the same issue you had with water spots, i followed what you did in the video but with regular compound like turtle wax and it worked perfectly and the window look better than new.
Great product that is prevalent in the Marine market! For large surface areas try any orbital sander with the hook-n-loop pad. Un-roll a steel wool 0000 to cover the pad and get after it. Finish sensitive edges by hand.
Amazing. I have the exact spots on my car. I tried literaly everything and almost nothing worked. I had some effect with various car polish agents and funny enough even worked with a toohpaste a bit but not nearly for all the window area. Thank you for your video and I will post back with my results after obtaining this product.
Lmao one year later, hello?
any result ??
He didn’t make it 😩
RIP bro
I waited two years and gave him the benefit of the doubt and still no response haha
Thanks for the video! I had tried to polish mine out with a drill and a pad but no luck. Just so happened to have steel wool lying around and some compound and I think I knocked 80-90% of the spots out or at least knocked them down so much they aren’t noticeable. Great info very very useful!!!
@Kevin Tao yes I actually used a compound which is a little more cut than a finishing polish
@Kevin Tao Correct. Using compound with 0000 steel wool by hand worked better than a pad and a polisher. I believe I even tried a drill and it still didn’t get the results the steel wool did,
@@jpate89 Typically professionals use Rayon pads on a rotary buffer to polish glass. Your rayon glass polishing pads are usually very thin because you apply moderate pressure using a cerium oxide based polish. If using a rotary it's important to stop often and check temperature and spirits with water if starting to dry or heat up too much. DA buffers work too but they are much slower yet heat buildup is almost a none issue compared to a rotary buffer. If you have too much heat in a localized area the temperature differential can cause the glass to crack.
I had the same situation with my Toyota Tundra 2006 .Could never remove the spot from my glass no matter what i used. Sold the truck to a good friend and i mention your video on how to remove water spot. and today he came me a call all excited that your vital information your share on You Tube work out for him.. I could only wish that you would have share it when i owed the truck. Thank You for A GREAT SHARE OF INFO.
Jose Florida Pure Fishing no problem! Glad it worked for you guys.
@@Jeremyparker7 does 0000 steel wool leave marks ? as someone mentioned small fine swirls ??
I'm going to try it on our shower door. After 20 years, it's become pitted from the hard water we have. Thank you for sharing your time & talent!!!
Did it work on your shower door?
@@angelgalindo783 it did a little. N to their credit, I'm not savvy to glass repair at all. I'm wondering if I used a car buffer (used an orbital when the elbow grease gave out) if it would perform better for my circumstance.
Great video Jeremy BTW. When you said that the Window Repair solution started to dry it got me to think???? Sounds like what I use to clean my stovetop...I wonder if this is a close relation to the product "Cerama Bryte" the stove top cleaner???? I just had my car professionally bar clayed and waxed but they missed a spot. After trying a few products nothing removed it. Except my stove cleaner after getting the idea...hope this can help someone else as it worked for me.🙂
That's exactly what I have on both my cars. I thought it came from Simple Green Wash and Wax. But they said that it contains only carnauba wax. I have also tried everything out there and nothing works except I used some fine compound on a wheel and I clear a spot the size of a half dollar. This stuff you have looks great. Glad I found you on RUclips. Thanks.
Big thanks bro ! I washed the car yesterday and found out those on the glass and I thought I’ve done cause windex can’t removed those .
Thanks for the inspiration, its clean , i’m just using toothpaste and kind of wool for wash dishes here in Indonesia , it works . Thanks again for the inspiration.
Had the same problem and I tried A LOT OF THINGS... different products made specifically to remove hard water stains from windows and nothing worked. I tried the whool pads like you suggested and success... A Million Thanks!!!
Wow it’s hard to believe it worked, especially after everything you went though to get to this point. I’m gonna try this ASAP. Many Thanks!
I'm surprised the glass place who buffed it couldn't get it right.
That's exactly how to fix the problem.
A good buff with some glass polishing compound.
That stuff you purchased is the same stuff really only you're doing it by hand.
Nice job anyway.
Thank you so much! We tried everything! It was try this or replace the windshield! This worked! I wish I could post pics!! Thanks again so much! Saved me lots!
That's the ONLY way to show it!!!
Show how it is and show how it is after you use it.
No tricks, no manipulations, just facts.
Thank you! :)
I don't normally comment, but thanks for the tip. Wifes car had horrible spots and after she took it to a car wash place and they wanted to charge her way to much to remove them, I decided I should give it a go. Watch a couple you tube videos and decided to order the cleaner. Work great!!!! Thanks again
Just did my Ram 2500 windows & turned out great,didnt have a spray bottle for water,so I used Windex,great video!
So what did the glass company know ? Nothing !! The best way is to figure the solution yourself, and well done that you did. I have done this with white vinegar in the past, and it also worked perfectly.
Good product. Also Hydrofluoric Acid Aluminum POLISH work very well also. U have to be a little more careful but it works wonders.
Where can we buy this chemicals
@@diduladevmina8618 U should be able to order online. I get mine at a Detail Shop near me.
might be good to use for touch up of very resistant spots and use something else that you don't have to be super careful with. Just a thought, made note of this chemical. Here in FL it rains so often and without a garage I am always fighting these spots.
@ooohlaa13 Once u use the Acid and then clean with Castle Glass Cleaner may not ever spot again. I have had amazing luck with it.
Watched this video and decided to try it . Ordered it , used it and !#$$!!! Best money I ever spent ! Really I had stains and something that look like it had burned into the glass . This stuff here whatever it is got my windows looking like brand new . Highly suggest this if you have any doubt dont this Glasweld is it .... and doesnt take much !
Thanks Jeremy, I have to give this a try. I have acid rain water marks on my windshield and nothing I have tried so far has worked (vinegar, vinegar and razor, toilet bowl acid, etc). The etching is at the corner of the window where the wipers don't reach.
tslazoo you can get it on Amazon prime now.
Just used Sandpaper for back side and water 💦 and period window looks like new sandpaper 3000 period cheap Mexican Invention 🇲🇽 💯👌
Omg... I spent a few hours on my back two side windows on our 95 suburban and didn't barley touch it... Thanks for this video....
I used industrial scotch brite pads & jet dry mixed with normal car wash soap. Red(course) for Windows & grey(fine) for the body.
I just used Tru Grit on my 2023 Mustang GT. Washed with Tru Grit, then went back over with glass cleaner I got from Sam's Club. It got all of it off no scratches. Just don't let the spots set too long.
Besides this product, people suggested lemon (didn't work), and Barkeeper's Friend (didn't have) so I tried what I had on the shelf - Chrome Polish. It occurred to me that Chrome Polish would have to be super mild and non abrasive cleaner to clean chrome without scratching it so I tried it. It worked great with 0000 Steel wool. A friend said a window cleaner recommends 000 wool. I did have to scrub a lot with 0000 to get window clean so I suppose that might be worth a try, but test it first on an inconspicuous spot to make sure it doesn't scratch. Regardless, I think the actual cleaner you use is less important than the process.
I’ve used the 0000 steel wool before with amazing results. However, on my current truck, ‘17 Ram 2500, I took the steel wool to my side mirrors thinking I’d get the same results I always have before and it scratched the F**k out of the glass.
😂😂😂
You went to a glass place and they want to sell you new glass!!! LMAO You're lucky you didn't go to a car dealership, they'd say buy a new car "and I have a car right over here that never collects water spots!".
Greg Deeth 😅
Lmao!!
Lmao one of my family member bought a new 2019 car with water spots I’m guessing all the workers would do is spray it with a hose and not dry it and in 100 degree weather that drys quick.
A car dealer ship would tell you to go someplace else... Or probably suggest you go back to the very same glass place in the first place. in saying that, if you pay for insurance or any type of glass cover on your car lol... You're not paying for the new window, your insurance is and it's suppose to be that way. That's why we have insurance. So you don't have to winge cry and moan till the cows come home about how some glass place told you they want 400 dollars for your new window because it's got Acid rain and the best way for them to deal with it is to replace it. I mean it makes sense?? you go to a car dealership and you imagine they somehow end up talking you into selling that car and buying a brand new one. I mean, If you walk into a petstore were they sell.. Pets.... and you ask them to fix your carpets because the dog you just bought shit on the carpet.... What do you expect them to tell you? Lmao seriously i mean do you guys not have insurance or something? why is getting a window replaced due to acid rain a problem? Acid rain happens 24/7 in Japan and there is ALOT of lovely rare cars that just sit in car yards for years and years till the auctions happen what do you think they do? lol. They just get the glass replaced.... Way easier to deal with. Why is getting the glass replaced an issue? and don't say you haven't got or can't afford it because that's honestly no real excuse. That just means you're liable 100% to any damages, Fair enough though right????
Maybe next time park your car in a big GARAGE or something that's got cover from the weather lol. Wait till you get a rust issue. Then you'll understand it's basically YOUR fault that happend in some ways. Insurance doesn't cover rust because you live next to a beach for example, depends who you're with and what you're covered for though.
Bar keepers friend works with a green sponge. You have to make sure that your sponge and window stays clean or you’ll get swirl marks
For me the best method was to use a green SOS pad and wet it first. Then apply the solution to the SOS pad and begin to make circles on the window. Scrub it hard and once you have a solid white coat on the window STOP. Let it sit for a solid minute and wipe it off with a standard paper towel and then clean as usual
Thanks My eXtreme! I'll try the Green SOS pad!
I hate to say it my friend, but it wasn't the chemical, it was the steel wool. I had the same acid rain stains on all my windows. Tried a few different things (toothpaste, lemon, barkeepers friend), nothing worked because I was applying all of them with a rag. After reading some of the comments on here, I grabbed my box of Brillo pads, added a little Barkeepers Friend (not sure it was necessary, but I had it already so what the hell), and viola! A little elbow grease and all the windows look like new again. Each Brillo pad was good for about two windows, and then they would lose their grit or whatever, so I'd just get a new one. Three pads later and I can see clearly now the stains are gone.
I've used steel wool with every other cleaner and haven't had any good results so far... I'm definitely trying to find this cleaner.
@@myuselessMind-g8m Try Brillo pads first with barkeepers friend. Steel wool alone may not be what does it. Maybe it's the detergent or the detergent combined with the Barkeeper's friend, but I'm telling you it worked. Anyway, hope you get it worked out.
@@shepshape2585 Definitely worth a shot. Thanks.
It wasn’t the steel wool because it’s the product that polishes the glass that made the steel wool
Work
@@hellcat54th Well I’m here to tell you that a Brillo pad with some liquid Barkeeper’s Friend did the trick for me. Use what you like, I’m just relaying my experience.
Lime Away guys.. House hold product. Works like a charm.. Wipe on with paper towel and wipe off with damp towel... Works great .!!!!!!!!!!!
Sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid works well too. Spray it on dry, 20 seconds later, spray off the acid. Hope it helps, be careful with paint.
hope you get this message. i have dried well water on my rear window and side window and it is horrible ! hubby did not move my car when he watered his garden ! i ended uup buffing the back end of my car with rubbing compound and buffer and it came off. but the window i do not know ! do you think this stuff will get it off?
Yes, it will work!
so impressed with this! good job my man. i will be buying this for sure.
Thanks for sharing. Never knew there was a product that could effectively clean windshields.
Chemical guys has HEAVY WATER SPOT REMOVER ... ITS A ACID CONCENTRATED LIQUID CHEMICAL ... Works great
I used Fast orange hand cleaner ($2.97) from Walmart on Glass window and worked great
Cheap option I used pink stuff the paste with a kitchen sponge and wiped with baby wipes and it did wonders !!
NOT taking anything away from this video but 0000 Steel wool with some windex/water and put some more elbow grease into it and will work! I’ve literally just used it the other day after a homeless tweaker lady apparently dumped oil on my windshield while I was at work and it sun baked on to my window (110 out here) for about a week cause I didn’t give myself the time to try and clean it off, hence being lazy..and when I did nothing was working at all either , and on top of that we had some bad acid rain thru out the days also..used 0000 grade steel wool with windex not vinegar and worked like a charm! At least for me it did , but didn’t come out with a couple wipes , you gotta do light circle wipes around. Just giving my 2 cents cause I was literally about to drop 40 bux on this product the other day when I gave steel wool a chance for 5 bux! And worked out for me! But thank you for the info!
@Kevin Tao True, but doesn’t hurt to give it a shot at a much cheaper expense. The video is good info too tho, for those in his same situation.
Thanks for the tips; however what kind of steel wool you use? Any specs info?
Thanks man. I tried everything. This actually worked. My windows looks like new. Thanks again
Wow! Just what i need. Found it on Amazon too, in case anyone is wondering.
GENIAL, MAGIC, I tried many products but none of them was so effective as this one. This has relieved me from the stress I was undergoing for a long time. Thank you JEREMY PARKER for your precious video and thank you GLASWELD.
Great video. ...Acid works great on any water spots that stay on window's also my truck had the same stains as yours sprayed some acid and just wiped off with towel no effort very easy...spot free now
I don't know about acid rain but are there like low spots because it looks like hard water to me and any delimer should work fine
So basically it just polishes the surface of the glass and sand off the layer of rain stain? My car has the same stain on my rear window and side-view mirror, and now I guess I have a way to get rid of those, thank you!!
Just use "Bar Keepers Friend" and water. Mix into a paste and scrub the glass. Same results, for a fraction of the price.
Gbus theManUpstairs Can you tell me the exact way to use this because I have the stuff and tried it and couldn’t get it to work I need help
Gbus theManUpstairs I used it as well... I did have some fine swirls from the steel wool though.
I've been doing this for years you need to use 0000 steel wool and bars keeper mixed with water to make a paste. Will not scratch your glass. Do not use on side mirrors. Total cost at Home Depot $7.00
Used Bar Keeper's Friend (liquid) with 0000 steel wool. Follow with dry towel then glass cleaner. Works great on my 2000 Infiniti glass. Keep it off the paint.
And it’s $3.
Bro you are the man! Great video keep up the good work.
Good video. What is the name of the product that you used for? Thx and rgds from Panama
GREAT JOB -- THANKS --- THE EGGSPERTS WERE WRONG AS USUAL
Ok it's 9/2020 and I just got this online and will be trying it soon. My windshield has a baked in chemical soil from a set of hybrid michelin wipers that nothing I've tried worked to remove it. Clay failed. Vinegar failed. Invisible glass failed. Windex failed. Turtle wax glass cleaner failed. Megeuire failed. I mean all the walmart auto glass cleaning agents failed. I was contemplating windshield replacement. Saw this online and after seeing the video i ordered it and I will do as this author recommends and will post my results after ward. Stay tuned.
Tell me how it goes! I’m gonna order one rn so I can do this to my girlfriends Camry
@@KitwiSauce I posted the morning after my results. But in any case this product is legit!!! I got it online and kind of applied it as the author did. Test it on a small area first and then determine if it's right for you. HOWEVER this product is the joint!!! I've tried everything else short of windshield replacement and now my trucks windshield is as clear as crystal. My lesson learned is only buy oem wipers from the dealer. After market wipers made my life miserable for about a month thinking after all remedys failed i'd have to replace my windshield. It was that bad. But GlassWeld, 0000 super fine steel wool and water did the impossible. Good luck and post your experience won't you?
Nelson Vega The stuff works like a dream, very glad I bought it! It took a while to take out the water stains, but the product did its job. Very glad I got it 😂
@@KitwiSauce awesome brother i'm glad it worked for you. This stuff is better than everything else put together.
My detailer recommended steel wool and Maguires Scratch-X, same idea I guess.
Do you know if that will scratch the window
You can use aluminum brightener- aka - acid. Don’t use in the Sun. Don’t let it dry. Go back behind it with glass cleaner. Will look brand new again
Does this work on paint? I have these spots all over my car. Desperately need to try this
To clean glass use window cleaner and a micro fiber towel , After a good wash and rinsing ! A good leather shammy towel works miracles ! On paint and glass. still got water spots? Armor All will get rid of all water spots! That my pro tip
I scratched my glass with the 000 steel wool. Probably bearing down too hard in a small area.
A small square of green ScotchBrite and a dab of Bar Keepers Friend did it. I had the worst case of it I’ve seen; parking under trees, or cheap factory glass, who knows. Took 5-6 rounds of scrub/rinse/dry. Checking in between rounds for a smooth surface with a wet hand and wet glass. You can feel the difference when the deposits start disappearing, it’ll get super slick.
i did 2 rounds barkeepers didnt notice anything ... I will do a few more rounds, thanx will update My car stays outdoors, does yours? What year is your car? Mine is 2017 Florida rains a LOT!
@@ooohlaa13 My mom used to say “you aren’t using enough elbow grease” lol. You have to scrub pretty hard with the Scotch brite pad. I didn’t see much either after only a couple of passes. Use the corner of the pad to get in the corners of the window. I have 2016 Ford Focus, I park outside 24/7 in New Orleans
My subie 2022 has ridiculous rain stains ont he windows. IDK cheap glass, the trees, rain, soap or what, but even brake cleaner won't take it off. I'm thinking to try this or try some heavy duty cut with a DA
I can’t wait to try this on my shower door..!!
Do you have coal train dust or pulp mill pollution or a coal fired power station nearby? Acidic silts or anything like that in your area?
Fxxck dude!!! It fxcking really worked. I did everything to remove those damned marks and at last I could do it. A thousand thx man.
I herd clr calcuim lime rust stuff works but i will try this also i remember watching a video where they used the clr. But yeah these water spots are annoying thank u
Cheers mate worked a treat on our vw Kombi 🤙
Where did you buy it? I can not find it anywhere on the internet? Colin, I hope you replay. Thanks in advance.
I’d recommend not using steel wool and and use a rugged rag. Only reason is I did this exact thing and came off great just like the video BUT at certain angles you can see scratches and it doesn’t look good. Just a heads up…
My windshield is all spotted up and I was told the same thing...Will definitely try this stuff, although I am afraid of using steel wool...Do the directions recommend steel wool?
I just use steel wool with fine 0000 grit at 99 cents store and wax it as a final touches,You don't need that $28 chrome polish.This is a product endorsement video.
If is so hard to remove from glass, how good is for plants? And we use another chems to clean, chems that is going in enviroment...
Is that a temporary fix where it'll wear off after a few months and then you have to reapply?
Liquid Bartenders Friend and 0000 steel wool did it for me.
Yes use that product but not the 4 ot (0000) superfine steel wool. I install glass in houses and offices for the last 10 years so I thought to use the steel wool as the owner of the place I work at said it’s ok to use on automotive glass too. WRONG!!! It leave fine swirl marks in your glass that one when the sun glares through it you’ll see but it go away when the glass get wet. Use a old wash cloth or paper towels if you want to do that to your vehicles glass. No matter what you use it is going to take a little elbow grease to get it clean anyway so do ruin the glass in the process of trying to clean it
Dude, i worked in a few dealerships, guess how they clean your brand new glass??? 0000 steel wool. Next time your at a dealership go down to the detail depo and go look for yourself.
@@utbigpapa every dealer I've ever worked at or gone to has their own detail shop.... but I've only worked at 4 dealers and only gone to a few others, so I cant say that all dealerships have their own detail shop...
@@utbigpapa and I'm saying that the dealers I've been to/worked at have dealer employees not contractors or anything else. One dealer I worked at had 3 detail employees in the wash bay and even a soft touch carwash on site.
I would never let a dealership even WASH my car.
Since you install glass, do you have any experience with gasoline stains on glass? I've had alot of trouble with it and could use some help
Thanks
Are used baking soda mix with warm water into a pace and just rub it on the glass with a soft scrub with a little muscle and it got very very clean like new only $4
I have to try this stuff, like you I've tried everything!
Awesome. What grade of steel wool was you using ? I'm assuming 0000
Great, thanks. Same problem, mine are finer but deeply etched. Do you think, that stuff will
take off those spots. Ted.
T. W. Farcasin PhD I would almost guarantee it! I have used this product a lot and haven’t found anything it wouldn’t work on yet.
Thanks for the video bro. I had tried everything and finally this worked!👍🏽
Where did you find it?
Thanks for posting this! I'm surprised the steel wool didn't completely wreck the window.
Matt South steel wool doesn’t scratch glass, especially the very find steel wool that he used.
I got tire cleaner on my glass by some stupid situation... I thought I was going to be stuck with this forever, I’ll have to try this.
Great job. Did the restore /results hold up?
I will give this a try but I want to ask can I use any other glass restorer
some videos say don't do circles go in straight lines yet I would rather do circles does it really matter I'm confused.
Thanks great demostration im gonna give this a try too!
Oh wow! Great job
BRILLIANT!
Instant Sub and Thank You sooo Much, Jeremy.
Rainx Xtreem Clean cream at walmart works just as good for a fraction. Like 5 bucks
Bro great product. I have that same problem. Great video. I’m going to use it. 👍🏼
Like anything else you keep scrubbing or polishing until it goes quiet. Then and only then is it ready
Another trick is to buy some magic eraser and diamond polish you can literally buy them anywhere. It goes away quick
Might have to try this, cant stand having windows like that with a clean shiny car.. vinegar worked with some good rubbing on the mirrors but not my window
Bro I left wheel acid inside my truck and I left it sitting for a few and it stained the inside of the glass u know of anything a lil stronger or should I replace the glasss cuz it evaporated and stained the windshield and ruined the tint
Get some works toilet bowl cleaner. Put on rubber gloves get a rag wipe down glass hit it with soapy water squeegee clean. Spotless and streak free
