some 0000 steel wool, and some windex should take the minerals off safely.

A weak acid, Coke or Vinegar will do the trick. WD-40 and steel wool are a bad idea.

I don't know why, I have used it for years. A real fine steel wool used gently won't scratch the glass. When I lived in Florida the only way I could get the love bugs off was Brillo pads and a bucket of water.

White vinegar and distilled water mixed 50/50 always worked great for me.

hmm...I never seemed to have a problem with windex and a paper towel!! just have to do it 2 or 3 times, and really polish on the glass once the majority of hte liquid has been soaked up by the towel.

I had a 95 S-10 blazer that my wife brought here from California and it had bad water stains on all the windows. I tried everything including Windex of course, it wouldn't touch it. I tried CLR and a few other products and never could get them to lighten. We sold the little thing in about a hour one day after I put it in the front yard. California car with no rust sells quick around here even though the windows were mess.
I never tried steel wool, now I know thanks.

I've used Bon Ami and a scotch brite pad, just do not rub hard.
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.
