I have sliding glass doors and there is minerals that are deposited between the glass and I can't see out.
Is there a way that I can get rid of the of the deposits without taking the whole thing apart.
About Me
ALES LOMBERGAR is one of the few artisans in Europe who still practice the ancient art of glass acid etching which flourished in the late 19th century. Decorations are applied with resin resists by hand and then exposed to acid baths, with no machinery used. More information here.Recent in portfolio

If it is between the glass, the seal is broken and there is no fix. Depending on how old it is, some manufacturers have a lifetime warranty and will replace it for free. But odds are that you are going to have to pay for a replacement, or live with it as it is. My mother had that happen to a couple of her windows, and it was pretty bad so she had to get them replaced. The cost was not too high, since she was able to reuse the frames, but there is no way to repair the seal without replacing the window.

LIME-AWAY. You might want to try this first. If that doesn’t work, try some elbow grease and SOS or BRILLO pads.

CLR to clean the glass and then apply Rain-X. If it is real bad, go to the hadware store and get 000 or 0000 steel wool and use it (scrub) with the CLR.

Between the glass???? Does that tell me that you are talking about thermal pane windows?? If so, then I believe the panes have lost their seal. That means ordinary air has gotten inside between the panes. I doubt if there is a fix. Sorry. If the view isn’t that special, perhaps you could decorate them with a stained glass product or by glass etching a scene onto them to hide the staining from the minerals. Your craft store would have many products for this purpose. I hope you can fix the problem. My daughter has that happening in hers, too.
