About this item

INSTANTLY REMOVE WATER SPOTS - Water spots are the stains of mineral deposits left over after a drop of water evaporates; the specialty gel neutralizes alkaline stains with a mild acid, removing the stuck-on water stain or hard water spots quickly and effortlessly.
WORKS ON PAINT, GLASS & METAL - Heavy Duty Water Spot Remover instantly erases alkaline water mineral stains from paintwork, glass, and polished metal surfaces.
PREPARES SURFACE FOR WAX - Beyond this level of contamination, water spots can etch deeper into the surface and cause permanent damage that may require polishing, wet sanding, and even repainting; Water Spot Remover can help prep before waxing.
PERMANENTLY REMOVE UGLY WATER SPOTS - Water spot damage begins as droplets of water land on paintwork and other surfaces; as the water evaporates, mineral deposits inside the droplet are left behind as a stain on the surface. Water Spot Remover effortlessly removes these stuck-on stains in seconds.
THE GO TO BRAND IN CAR CARE - Beginners and professionals alike choose Chemical Guys, not only for the finest car care products, but the world class customer support and vast detailing knowledge Chemical Guys is more than a brand it's a lifestyle with a worldwide following

5.0 out of 5 stars Takes off hard water spots
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2024
We used this product on our car and a few windows on the house. The water spots were from sprinkler water from our well. The stains had not come off with all the conventional ways we tried, but as soon as we used this (which was recommended to us at our local car wash), the stains came off like magic!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy on. Easy off. Spots eliminated.

Just like the video: couple of dabs of gel, rub it on without "scrubbing", and a few sprays to wipe it off. Spots on windows, trim, and paint are gone. Spots were so bad I could barely see out of my driver's side window, and my silver car looked white even after going through the car wash.

Note: new car (1 month), parked where it has been hit by the sprinklers daily, and then baked in the sun to dry (SE Florida). Normal washing/scrubbing did not remove the spots. Windex did nothing. Pink Stuff works on the windows, but it's messy and abrasive.

I rarely write reviews but I had to send this one? I have a Tesla Model 3 that had some of the worst water stains I have ever seen. Tried everything…vinegar, windex, cleaning compounds, goo gone, magic eraser. I even trapped “scrapping” the spots off. This Chemical guys formula got ALL of my water spots off after two applications. Wish I would have taken “before” images but honestly didn’t think it would work so well. After first cleaning most spots were gone except for the deep stubborn ones. After I cleaned it again with a second application all spots were gone and windows looked good as new. Also used this on the black rubber around the windows and was able to restore that as well. I use many different chemical guys products but this one for sure had the biggest impact. Writing this as I know there is somebody out there (like me) hesitating to purchase. Go for it, it works.

Very good product for the money. Takes a little more elbow grease than I expected to remove the spots, but it does work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Mineral water spots be gone!
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2023
I love Chemical Guys products. I'm accustomed to their quality and consistency of effectiveness. I own their Pink wash and their wheel cleaner products and used the wheel cleaner to help break down some rust and brake pad residue that built up on a rim. That's a tough ask and while I didn't clean it 100% Chemical Guys product actually broke down about 75% of the grime and dust that was caked onto the rim. It also might be that I didn't put enough effort and elbow grease into totally cleaning it. All that as mere prelude...

I love cleaning my truck. It's a black F150 and I enjoy washing it myself - especially on sunny days. I don't like paying $12 every time I take my truck to a car wash to get it "the works" and I'm not close enough to a franchise that has a monthly subscription that would let me wash my truck without having to do it myself. So here we are. The hose I use has some mineral-rich water. Even here in the Pacific Northwest, where our water is rather drinkable from the faucet/hose attachment, there's still enough iron and mineral density to eventually leave water spots on your vehicle. I finally put a filter on it but the water spots were definitely there and I couldn't get them off with using detailer or a standard, filtered rinse and wash. Finally, I came across another Chemical Guys product and after watching the proper way to use it, I immediately purchased and tried it myself. I'm still cleaning off the gel fully with a microfiber cloth (also a CG product) my black F150 looks much sharper and more glossy than ever before!

I don't have a great before/after picture but I would clean my truck before and, after it dried, I'd see those pesky water circles - especially on my hood where water is more likely to stand after a wash. The sides were mostly okay but I had some slight rigidity to the paint coat because of the stuff hitting it on the road over time - that also seems to come off. I didn't have to work hard - just apply more than a trace of this stuff and work a single section (one door or half a tailgate...whatever works). Make sure you have a somewhat clean outside already - don't do this with some mud on or it hurts the effectiveness of the product.

Anyways, it took me maybe 10 minutes to get the whole truck and the top windows applied and I came back 10 minutes later, wiped it all down and it was clean. Awesome product! Worth the $17 investment and it can cover multiple attempts from a single bottle. Do NOT dilute this - it's a direct application product, not a "mix with water" product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product
Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2024
I have tried various methods and products to remove water spots on my car. None of them worked except this product. It was very easy to use and the result was excellent. I found watching the YouTube video from Chemical Guys very helpful. And taking your car to a car wash afterwards makes the difference very noticeable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Does strange things to tinted glass
Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2024
Product works pretty well on most surfaces. Cleaned up the windshield, mirrors, and paint well. However, does strange things to tinted windows. Would not recommend using it on tinted windows. As the tinted windows on my truck are the ones that had the worst water spots, I will need to find another product to clean them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best thing since sliced bread
Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2024
I had water spots on my black car from sitting out of the garage then being hit by sprinklers all summer long. I was not sure if this would work, since it cooked all summer long into the paint. I cleaned then applied as instructed and the water spots came right out. I was so shocked I ran through doing the whole car, which has not looked that good in years. It does take a little more working in and a couple more drops on the sponge, but did the whole car and it used less than a third. Already talking it up to neighbors and friends, as if I own stock in this product. Hands down, one stop shop on water stain removal. Sorry no pics, didnt want review to look like their (chemical guys) review (side by side. Just going to have to take my word for it.
