Hard water, rust stain removal advice

If the vinegar solution fails, try a chemical paint cleanser. You can start with a basic over the counter paint cleaner such as Meguiar's Deep Crystal Paint Cleanser. If that

If the vinegar solution fails, try a chemical paint cleanser. You can start with a basic over the counter paint cleaner such as Meguiar's Deep Crystal Paint Cleanser. If that fails to work or only improves the stain so much, you need to use some abrasive polish. In that case, start with a fine polish and work your way up if that does not work. I recommend grabbing some Meguiar's Ultimate Compound as it is not very aggressive but has a decent amount of cut, finishes very well and is easy to use by hand.

Good luck!
