How to Remove Rust From Glass

Rust deposits from metal window trim can leave rust marks and rust deposits on the surrounding glass edge of an automobile. This rust won't harm the glass, but it does look unsightly. Rust is caused by oxidation of metal. Many vehicles don't have metal window trim today, but if your automobile has it, the likelihood that the trim and surrounding glass has developed rust spots is high.

Instructions

1

Remove rust deposits with a razor blade. If there are any actual deposits on the glass, scrape these off with the razor blade. Automotive glass is typically not damaged by this technique as long as you keep the blade at a 45-degree angle with the surface of the glass.

2

Scrub the glass with a scouring pad. You may need to scrub hard to remove rust stains, but the glass should come clean.

3

Wash the window with hot, soapy, water.

4

Rinse the window with water and towel it dry.
