How to Clean Salty Windows

Salty windows are inconveniences for those who face long, hard winters. Road salts prevent icing, but can splash onto your car windows. If you live in a coastal area, wind can carry droplets of saltwater to your home windows as well. In either case, when the water evaporates, white salt deposits remain on the windows, leaving unsightly stains.
