How to Remove Water Stains Off Car Windows

Water stains on windows arent only unattractive. If they are thick or plentiful enough, water stains can be dangerous if they prevent the driver from seeing properly. At times, water spots are so mineralized that they are too difficult to remove with just soap and water or glass cleaner. Keeping your windows looking perfectly clear can be done in less than an hour.

Instructions

1

Fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and set aside.

2

Fill the bucket with most of the remaining white vinegar. Make sure the bucket is absolutely clean before pouring the vinegar into it.

3

Separate the sections of paper, so that you have them separated into individual sheets. Fold them in half, so that you have a two-ply paper thickness.

4

Dip the newspaper sheets into the white vinegar until they are fully saturated. Dont leave the paper sitting in the vinegar, because it will get too soggy and will be unusable. Instead, just dip until saturated, then lift out of the bucket of vinegar.

5

Press the wet, vinegary newspapers against the windows of your car carefully. White vinegar easily eats through the mineral deposit stains that hard water leaves. Because the vinegary newspaper sticks to the windows, this will allow the vinegar to remain in contact with the water stains for a longer period of time, versus just wiping with vinegar.

6

Remove the newspapers from the windows when they begin to dry. Use a clean, dry towel to wipe the window clean, to see if the stains are gone, or if they wipe away easily. If they stains remain stubborn, repeat the process by re-wetting the newspapers, and allowing it to stick to the stains again.

7

Finish by removing all of the newspapers. Spray down all of the windows with the vinegar in the spray bottle. Wipe down the windows, for a crystal-clear, streak-free shine.

How to Fix Windows in a Pontiac Montana

For optimum visibility while driving your Pontiac Montana, you will need all of your car windows to be in perfect condition. A crack or chip in a window can easily grow and cause further damage to the glass. For the most economical repair, you can do the job yourself using a few materials that can be purchased at a local auto supply store.

Instructions

1

Scrub the damaged window with a mild detergent and water solution using a cloth. Rinse and dry it with another cloth.

2

Put on safety goggles and carefully extract any loose glass shards from the crack.

3

Insert the liquid resin tube supplied with the stabilizer unit into the injector cartridge. Put the injector cartridge into the suction cup stabilizer unit. There is a dedicated opening for this; refer to the product instructions if necessary.

4

Gently place the stabilizer on the window. Make sure the damaged areas are directly under the suction cup at the base of the stabilizer. Push down on the stabilizer to create suction that will hold it in place.

5

Remove the injector from its port inside the stabilizer. At this point, the resin will flow from the resin tube into the crack.

6

Remove the stabilizer from the window once the resin tube is empty.

7

Measure the length of the resin repair and cut the adhesive strips to fit. Place the strips over the resin for several hours, then remove and discard the strips.
