Hard water drip
I have a drip from my rear view mirror after I wash my car. My water is very hard. There is a white stripe left over. Meguiars Quik detailer removed 80% of it. How do I get out the rest?
thanks

I have used Meguiars scratch X.

Get a leaf blower or some of device that uses the high pressure air and it will get the water out of the mirrors as well as other places that hold water, such as the tail lights.

This is what I want to do. However, it's a little difficult as I live in an apartment. I don't have access to an outlet. Any suggestions?

The problem with the mirrors, is they hold a lot of water. If you don't have access to an outlet, I would order a set of the mirror covers so you don't continue to have this problem. until you get the covers, you can buy a 3 pack set of the compressed air in the can at Office Depot or any place like that. Use them to blow out the excess water. After that take some paper towels and slide them up in and around the mirrors to soak up the remaining water.

You can put a plastic bag over the mirror during the water spray interval. Then wash the outside of the mirror with a wet cloth and clean the lens with window cleaner and a soft cloth.... No drips.

Wouldn't just a good wax...like Meguairs X2 or simular do the trick?...just saying as OP says 80% is gone with the detailer.....I just get close and blow....course here in Arizona water doesn't stay too long...

As an above member suggested, vinegar & water removes mineral deposits nicely.
