Side mirrors & water spots

Unread post by mongoose100 »

Has anyone tried, or know of any remedies to remove water spots off mirrors?

Xantia has some really nasty watermarks on the mirrors and with traffic behind, can make a right proper glare!

Glass cleaner doesnt cut it, was contemplating cutting compound but I think they're plastic lenses :shock:

I've successfully polished scratches out of mobile phone plastic screens and cleaned otherwise immovable marks from the windscreen using Peek and Solvol Autosol metal polishes. Use a clean soft cotton cloth NOT paper (which scratches even glass).
