Your windshield is glass... If the spots don't come out with vinegar and water they are etched in the glass from the acid... Then you need to polish them out or they will never go away... Clean your windshield then spray rainX or a similar product and it will help tremendously with spotting and make them easier to clean as well...

If using simple green or any harsh cleaner, you want to make sure to re- moisturizer the vinyl to prevent cracking and dry Out down the road :-)

So, Simple Green works good on the vinyl? I have some mold spots(yellowish brown) between the cusions from the first year I owned the boat and it got wet right before winter storage. :( Will it help with that??

Dark I found a product that worked the best for that years ago.. Just can't find it now as I have the same issue.. When I do finally find it I will let ya know the name :-)

This may be one of those dumb questions but....My windshield is plastic right? not glass.

And what will get it clean and clear again. I have used simple green on it before but it never stays clean and spot free for longer than two minutes.

It should be "glass"

 

Like true was saying about rainx, I wax my window inside and out after I clean it. It really helps with water spots and keeps it clean while out on the water.

Hey Dark & True have you guys tried the Meguiar's Vinyl and Rubber cleaner and conditioner before?

No. Are you asking because you're curious of its cleaning properties, or because you've had good luck with it?

I have been using it since the day I rolled of the lot with my Elite in '06. I love it, I'll bet you would too. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

 

It keeps it moist and protects it from common stains pretty well.

Very excellent product for minor blemishes and it does keep the vinyl protected and moisturized. It don't get the marks completely off between the seat though :-( that Dark is referring to..

Spud you know I'm a meguires fan ;-))))) hehe

For my windshield, nothing works like Hot Sauce. (or if you're cheap, you can use vinegar and water :)

Hey! I use vinegar and water. If if you want to hear cheap, two bottles of vinegar came with my boat and I'm going to use them up. Meshuggenah

LOL, the wife just came home with a bottle of hot sauce. I asked her what it was for, since it would be the first time in 11 years we had hot sauce in the house, and she said "the boat honey". "I was walking by your computer and saw that some one said to use it on your windshield" :wallbash:

She is a good woman :friends: , and at least I saw it before she decided to be helpful and spread it all over the windshield :thumbsup: .

We have a small carpet cleaner (The Green Machine I think) that I picked up the cleaner solution for today. I am going to try and work on it a little tonight, if not I will be working on it over the weekend.

I will post before and after shots with an update tonight or Saturday.
