The potato should work reasonably well, although I'd prefer to not get the
potato starch all over the windows. The potato contains a few mild acids,
including phosphoric acid. Phosphoric acid is a commonly used mild acid for
lime removal and was once the main ingredient in "Lime Away".

Isn't there an old grade school experiment in which a "battery" (actually a
"cell") is constructed using a potato?

I would imagine that a lemon, orange or grapefruit cut in half would also work.
The acid content should be higher and the acid juice should be more "mobile."

Cut a potato in half, and use the flat side to rub your window. The
"mild" acid or alkali in the potato will do wonders and for almost
nothing money wise. Like I said,.............Don;t laugh until you try
it.

I have no idea where I got this from. But I have done it and it worked
for me. I suppose it's one of those Marth Stewart Things.


What product or home DIY solution will remove water spots from car
window?
Alchol, Vinegar do not remove those round spots.
Windex, BonAmi "Glass and Window Cleaner" do not. These are the spot
where the
lawn sprinkler water hits the window glass.

Thank you, Dave_s

Try Coca Cola! Just don't get it on the paint. Works great.
