What is the method to remove water stains from the inside of the windshield?
2 Answers
The water stains on the inside of the front windshield can be removed by using a soft cloth dipped in toothpaste to wipe it. Avoid using a wet towel. Here is some additional information: 1. Principle: The windshield of a car has a certain curvature and is made of laminated tempered glass and zoned tempered glass. Laminated glass enhances the glass's resistance to breakage, while zoned tempered glass increases the glass's strength. Even if the glass breaks, tempered glass shatters into small pieces, reducing the risk of injury to passengers. 2. Maintenance: For regular glass care, you can use glass cleaner to wipe the glass. Glass cleaners include summer glass cleaner, winter antifreeze glass cleaner, and special antifreeze glass cleaner. Choose the appropriate glass cleaner based on the season and weather conditions for effective glass cleaning.
Removing internal water stains from the windshield is a routine task for me, especially during winter driving. The main causes are high interior humidity combined with the temperature difference between warm cabin air and cold outside conditions. The most direct and effective solution is activating the AC's defogging function: after starting the car, press the defrost button (usually marked with a fan icon or 'front defrost') while turning on the A/C cooling function paired with warm air, directing the vents toward the windshield. Crank up the fan speed, and the fog will clear within a minute or two. Preventive measures are equally crucial: I regularly wipe interior dust with a microfiber cloth to prevent fingerprint buildup; when parking, I leave a slight window gap for ventilation to avoid moisture accumulation. Additionally, avoid leaving wet clothes or drinks inside the car as these exacerbate the issue. For stubborn stains, apply commercial defogging spray or use a homemade detergent solution (1:10 dilution) for wiping. This safe and cost-effective method helps maintain visibility during rain or snow, preventing accidents, and becomes effortless once it becomes habitual.
