I was wondering if there is anything I should avoid using to clean my '03 Runner's hydrophobic windows? My windows have some prettty nasty waterspots on them, what do you recommend to get these off? I don't want to compromise the the chemically treated windows in any way. Thanks.

Sorry for double-posting this. I should have just posted it in here only. I trust the opinions here.

 

I'd start out by trying some vinegar to maybe dissolve the lime waterspots you may have.

I'd NOT use anything even a little abrasive, such as glasswax or Bon Ami. On another forum, there have been complaints of scratching the rear window on an '03 removing ice with a plastic scraper.

I've used good 'ol Windex exclusively for the windows on my '03, and it's worked well

Good luck.

Get the stuff is those aersol cans... I'm using stuff made by Gunk. They stuff comes really clean and is safe for tint.

 

Hey guys, thanks for the tips! Since it was late, I went with the vinegar. I diluted it quite a bit and it worked great! No more freaking water spots!
