Soap and a good scraper works a treat

Been using winsol for years, it's excellent for hard water stains. Just be careful with the eyes when using it, also can sting a wee bit on the hands.

Can you not make a comment without promoting your own videos which are mainly outdated ?

He needs to be banned here as well thought he was ? Only ever promotes his own videos that are years out of date and very amateurish
Ok So everyone wants to know about Winsol CC550 how to use it.
Put video up showing how first used it.
As well if you had seen the video.
Also the safety part as well.
Much more under Video.
Regarding Material Data Sheets etc.
Only put it up because it appears no one seems to know Exactly how to use it.
Or know Very little about this.
As far as I know this is the only video the shows this.
And all the information below it.
May be an old video but the information has never changed.

Here Instructions for the People that are Interested how to Use CC550.
1/ How to use it.what too look out for when using, PPE etc.

Always use plastic pails and containers.
Do not use metal or painted containers.
Clean window glass before using (CRYSTAL CLEAR-550. CRYSTAL CLEAR-550 is NOT a cleaner. ) ALWAYS TEST GLASS BEFORE APPLYING CRYSTAL CLEAR-550 TO ENTIRE WINDOW.
Check for surface coatings and residues such as silicone treatment, building sealer and waxes. (According to some glass manufacturers, silicone treatments and building sealers may be removed by applying toluene first to soften the film and a low abrasive rubbing compound to remove the residue.
CHECK BOTH SIDES OF GLASS FOR STAGE II CORROSION. (GLASS WILL USUALLY TURN WHITE WITH COATINGS AND STAGE II CORROSION WHEN TESTED.) STAGE II CORROSION IS NOT CORRECTABLE AND GLASS SHOULD BE REPLACED.
Apply CRYSTAL CLEAR-550 with a natural sponge or a clean, white cloth.
Wring sponge or cloth to prevent runoff.

If product runs down the glass, it is being overused.
Apply for one to two minutes, then rinse with water or a dilute solution of trisodium phosphate.
Repeat as necessary. DO NOT USE CRYSTAL CLEAR-550 ON WINDOW FRAMES OR ANY NON-GLASS SURFACE. DO NOT USE ON SELF-CLEANING (TITANIUM) GLASS. RINSE AWAY ANY SPILLS IMMEDIATELY.
NOTE: If glass becomes hazed or white, proceed no further until you can determine if it is a coating, building sealer or Stage II corrosion, or if given permission by supervision or building management personnel.

Looking for actual suppliers who have it in stock.

Might be one of those things that’s in short supply at the moment , many advertise stuff as in stock when it’s not and Evan charge you for it knowing they cannot supply it . At least the ones that say it’s out of stock are being honest
