Water spots on chrome?
George,
I have water spots that are "baked" into the chrome around my side windows. They are almost a light brownish color now. I have seen various removal tips posted in other threads. I've already tried white vinegar and CLR - the CLR helped a little but not a lot. Obviously there is some etching going on so its not just a matter of removing the calcium. The most promising idea I've read is using a regular car polish on a rag and just rubbing the spots out. Any thoughts on this? (P.S. sorry if you've already addressed it - I searched but didn't see anything).

Certainly, you can clay almost any surface of your vehicle, including plastic, glass, paint and wheels.

George,
what do recommend for clear bra restoration? my clear bra is over three years old and shows a lot of fine scratches...guess cause it is so soft. I was thinking about either Meguiars Plastix or ScratchX. which would be the better choice or do you have a better idea.
thanks.

Hope this helps.
Sorry for some of the delayed replies, I've been out of town for the past 5 days.
Cheers,

I'm sorry I never ended up buying the wheel sealant and I couldn't find the page where you recommended the right one. Was it poorboy's wheel sealant that you said would do the best job on my Sevas? They are painted face with a chrome lip. I want something that will make them easier to clean and maybe shine more, as well as protect from the rain/mud/calcium
