Answer:
Life just got a lot easier thanks to a new product, Power Blue Scale Off. Spray it on the scale and brush, repeat till the scale is all gone. Can be purchased online at www.powerblue.us

Answer

Steel wool will scratch glass and ammonia works on oil based smudges on glass. You need a mild acid, such as vinegar or something specifically designed to cut lime to cut through hard water. It may take a couple applications, but that's the only way to really make it come off.



Water and baking doda have been proven to work to remove hard water spots on glass. See the step by step method below...

Natural Formula to Use:
A mixture of baking soda and warm water

Method to Use:
1.Make up the mixture of water and baking soda

2.Scrub stains with a soft brush or sponge

3.Rinse thoroughly with water to remove all residue

Tip:
When scrubbing the stains be careful to rub gently as once the glass has been scratched it easily picks up any grease, dirt or soap residue. Then harsh abrasives really are necessary to remove debris that has become ingrained within the surface!
