Default another detaling question..

Another one for the detailing pros out there...my car (15 T4S) is about 9 months old and I'm starting to notice what I can only call 'spots' on the glass. I think they are water spots but when I clean and try to rub them out with a glass cleaner like Stoner they don't seem to want to budge. So how can I remove these if even a dedicated auto glass cleaner doesn't work? I will try to post a picture soon but if anyone can help it would be much appreciated..

you can clay the glass. don't use normal glass cleaner either. go to Adamspolishes.com and watch a grip of phenomenal detailing videos on every last subject -got lost of two hours on those videos the other day. great company, great products and almost all American made.

try mixing some vinegar and water into a spray bottle and try that. also, for streaking, do not use a cloth - I use something like Bounty or other paper product

Clay.

I make my own glass cleaner. 1 part denatured alcohol to 2 parts distilled water. Use only 100% white terry cloth glass only dedicated towels. Never washed with fabric softener. Bam!

Griots glass polish by hand or buffer will quickly remove spots and hide small stone chips.
