wow that is disgusting, i usually take a pressure washer to mine and some degreaser once a year, looks pretty bad right now, next week is spring break so im gonna go to town on mine if i feel motivated enough

im gonna try something to get rid of the hard water spots on windows i saw on truck u by taking some fine steel wool and soapy water, hopefully it works
