Mission Clarity - Water Spots Removal on a Honda Civic

[zckid]

Hello friends

I got a pm from someone living in the North of our small island to clean up his ride’s glass. After meeting him to see his car, he was here next morning, with his beauty.

the tools and products:
Wash: Local car wash shampoo, MF wash mitt, MF towels
Decontamination: Bilt Hamber Clay (Regular)

Makita rotary, Car Pro glass polishing pads, DP Glass Restorer, Sonax Glass Polish, DP Polymer Sealant


Car was washed, glass decontaminated.
For water spots, I tried the least aggressive method. DP Glass restorer on a polishing cloth. It wouldn’t budge. This was a severe water spots problem.
Then I tried DP Glass restorer on the Car Pro pads. It needed too much effort, and took a long time.
Moving a level up the aggressiveness scale, I tried the Sonax Glass polish with the pads. It took about 4-5 hours to completely get rid of all the water spots and leave a crystal clear view thru’ the glass. Glass was sealed with DP polymer sealant.
