I am having trouble removing water spots from the paint and glass. The only thing I have found that works is using rubbing compund on the paint.
I have heard about these Clay Bars. Never have tried or purchased. Will a Clay Bar remove water spots? Thanks......steve

Well, David, what do you expect??? You live in SPOTSylvania.
Sorry, couldn't pass this one up.
You might try doing a Search at the top of this page for water spots. It should bring up any threads that are on this site.
Also, you might try this site: http://www.autogeek.net/waterspots.html

I'm not sure about the clay bar and the paint.I don't have any spots on my cars.I do know that it is next to Impossable to remove water spots from glass.I've been there before.I had a 70 Z (red 4 speed)that had spots on the glass.That was a real pain, and in the end I had to just by new glass.The water spots are ETCHED into the galss.I tried everything.Eastwoods glass polishing kit,forget it.Don't waste your money.Don't waste your money on anything.I ended up getting some polishinhg chemical from a supply warehouse that sold strong stuff to factories and the like.It didn't work either.I know this is not what you want to hear. If you do get new glass Apply rain-x on EVERY glass, yes even the outside mirrors.I do it on all my cars.Whenever I buy a new car for my wife The rain-x goes on.You only have to do it about every 3 or 4 mos.depending on your conditions.That will prevent water spots from happening. zgator 2007-03-30 20:17:35

I know water spots on glass can sometimes be impossible to get off. I have never used lime away; however, I have used and still use a product called BioClean. You can get it at glass shops and some trim shops, under $20.00 with a money back/satisfaction guarantee down here, they say. It worked very well on some glass issues I had on a different car.
