I was always hesitant to use an abrasive or a polishing compound on the glass (except for the windshield). On my other cars I always used rubbing compound on the windows to remove small imperfections from the glass. Isn't there some coating on the side glass of the SVX that could get damaged or removed by using Bonami or rubbing compounds. I have hard water spots all over my side glass and could never get them off. I had a whole bunch on my driver side mirror that was so bad I couldn't see out of it. I used polishing compound on it and it removed the spots like gang busters but it also removed the blue tint from the glass and left it clear. After seeing that I would never have used anything remotely abrasive on the side glass. Any thoughts on this? I'm going to take Ron up on his brake fluid tip...CAREFULLY!

You can tell the lack of craftsmanship by the wrinkles in the duct tape.
