Any advice on how to remove water rust stains on this 1/4 window?

Thanks!

vinegar and water using newspaper to wipe it down.

Or bon ami and a damp sponge if it's really stuck.


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

I've used CLR but it leaves a film that has to be washed off.

I've had great luck with Bon Ami on glass.

SOS pads might get it off.

I used purple cleaner , put it on let it soak about a minute and rub it with 00 steel wool shouldn't have to rub it hard!

Try to stay away from steel wool or SOS pads.. No matter what is said on here you will leave small scratches...

If you can chemically clean it ( no abrasives ) that it the best way.. Try some different cleaners..

Bon Ami seems to be the least damaging abrasive...
