Only problem is some guys have said the steel particles rust. Someone mentioned bronze wool or brass wool once on autopia as an alternative I think.

I just tried the diamondite glass system on my car. I had some water etching that I wanted to fix. I would grade this stuff as a B. Bad spots needed multiple applications. I think I would grade it higher if the stuff was cheaper. It is kinda pricey.

I have also picked up some glass shower door water spot remover from Home Depot for the shower doors, and that stuff worked great (On shower doors). Much easier to use too and cheap! I forget the name, but it is a powder that comes in a small yellow rectangular bottle. I think it has a red top. I picked up a sponge in the smae aisle with a whiteish scrubber on one side. The stuff cleaned the shower doors spotless in seconds! I should have used that on the G windows!

Other guys have also used vineagar to remove spots as well. If you look on autopia, you'll find all the info you need!
