What have some of you used to polish Glass? I am lucky I have no scratches Just water stains at the rear window, were the water sat and dried.

Hs anyone used a kit like Eastwood or ? 

I can not see any markings Like Desoto, Mopar, ECT. was their any back then?

Original formula Bon Ami with feldspar only for tougher stains, vinegar and water spray for lighter stains.

Bon Ami Powder Cleanser (gold label) is not recommended for windows, mirrors, or other glass surfaces.

Have used bon ami for years for glass, stainless, and oxidized paint with great success.  There is also bartenders friend which is also feldspar based.  They both have newer formulas, so make sure you read the label and avoid the ones with silica or aluminum oxide..  It can be messy but they both well.

 

Great for the whole exterior especially if you are trying to save thin original paint without burning through with rubbing compound.  Works to clean and burnish the patina look if you are into that look.
