Waterspots on glass, what's the easiest way to get them off? Just wax?

Yeah, I've heard that a couple companies had stuff like that, I was just wondering if something else worked. Everybody on here always seems to have easier/better solutions, figured I would ask.

presuming you use paper towels when you windex them or w/e it is, use newspaper just as 02blue said, that works really good... never heard anything of toothpaste before though?

Yeah, toothpaste is just abrasive enough to polish glass or plastic lenses. My Mom used a diluted vinegar/water mix and newspapers to clean the windows in our house...she mixed it up and my brothers and I were the 'applicators'.

I use a Porter Cable polisher with Adam's green pad and Swirl & Haze Remover. Works great! Not too much pressure!
