Truck has smear to the glass and body.?
I have a Fire Engine Red 2005 Toyota Tacoma truck. Earlier this spring I started to water my new grass using a “ground water point”. Last week I started to notice a purple/violet smear or tint to the body paint. I also noticed streaks on the windshield and pass. window. No matter how hard I scrub with Windex on the glass they will not come out. It looks like soap spots. The wind blew some water on my truck for a few hours during the night. I tried hot water/white vineger/and a little Ajax cleanser. It did nothing. I tried windex on the glass and it did nothing. I know that ground water stains sidewalks brown from the minerals and can harsh. Anyone have any ideas how to get this off my truck? Thanks

For the glass try a product called Bon-Ami.(Ajax may further damage your glass)This is a household powdered cleaner that has a mild abrasive,and it will not damage your glass but will get off stubborn stains or mild hazing.For the body I would first try some Maguire’s tech wax. If that fails,try a polishing compound but be careful.

On the body try rubbing compound then re-wax.
On the glass I would try some blue car wash soap. Good Luck and GOD Bless

take it to auto zone,they will hook up the scan tool and check for codes,tell them that my ex husband sent you and they may even fix it for free,or you can buy a haynes manual for $20 and it will show you everything,don’t forget to change your air and fuel filters too,good luck,hope this helps
