Water Spots on Windshield

Tried everything before steel wool soap pad - then attacked a corner and found it didn’t scratch.
The water spots should come off

Bgreene nailed it. The water by us is very hard. Any water that drys on a surface leaves a deposit of various minerals. White vinegar and Steel wool (The big curly kind, not the type that has soap in it) removes it. On softer surfaces use the 3M Scotchbrite type of pad so you don't scratch the surface. Vinegar is a mild acid, let it sit on the surface and do it's job before you start scrubbing. There's a reason that people clean their coffee pots, etc, using vinegar.

I used the standard steel wool soap pad - nothing else.

It's really the vinegar that's doing the job, but to each their own. Both will work nicely.

I foresee a day of scrubbing in my future. My Grady has a lot of glass.
That might have to wait for a summer day. Too many things to do before it floats.
Just ordered the yearly Yamaha maintenance parts...x2!

Oy! Big boat, big bills!
