Title: Hard Water Marks on Glass
Post by: Steve_c on August 03, 2010, 07:51:16 am

I have a customer who has used a garden sprinkler to water his new lawn and the water from the sprinkler has left quite bad water marks on the Kitchen windows Dining windows and patio doors. I have managed to get some off but the only way to get it all off is my scrapper. Can any one recommend a hard water remover? I have brought some rubbish from B&Q and it didn't touch it. The water down here is very chalky. Regards. Steve_c

Don't think you'll do much better than this if it's hard to shift
