Spots on rear windshield. i've just noticed that there are alot of "spots" that are scattered on my rear windshield when my car is in direct sunlight. Does anyone know the cause of this and how to fix it? the only way that i thought of fixing it is by tinting it cuz i was gonna do it anyways. but i'm j/w why the spots are there, its prolly over 100 lol. I'll get a pic when i can find my camera. |
water spots? use no touch auto glass stripper available from napa. then put some rain-x to keep it clean. |
actually, come to think about it. ever since i've been using rain-x i've been seeing the spots. |
well i would have said that it was ur tint because when I wear sunglasses well this one pair I can see the dots in every single persons car that has tint....but you dont have tint lol |
pics? i dont have any spots because i use rain-x. but you need to strip the glass first otherwise it will just wash off and you'll get the spots again. |
i dont think he means hard water spots. i think the rear window is delamming(sp) i have actually noticed it on my rear window as well. in this case the only way to fix it is to replace the window. tint just make it less apparent but it doesnt fix it. there is actually 2 peices of glass with a lamination in between for safety. when the glass starts to pull apart from the lamination its called delamming. youll notice a lot of cars actually face this problem. its just more apparent in non-tinted windows. you can usually only see it at certain angles |
interesting, pics would help cause i've seen alot of old cars and never noticed this. |
When I wear my polarized sunglasses, just about every car I see has spots all over the rear window, no joke. Also when I had my 02EX when it was new, there were big round spots where it looked like the suction machine that places the window in at the plant left suction marks, they were about 6" in diam byt went away after a year or so. |
illl see if i can snap pics. if it will even show up in the pics. i see it a lot around here. but for some reason i see it on newer cars more than older ones. probably because older cars didnt need safety glass in the rear....... |
i heard theres film on the front windshield too? |

I have also noticed these spots, but with polarized sunglasses, you can see them more clearly and you can see them on almost everyones cars. So I have accepted this as normal. |
