Hardtop back glass, they look like the suction cups that hold the glass during installation. I’ve scrubbed inside and out, won’t go away. Anyone else notice?

Interesting. It rained here today too but I didn’t notice any rings. What did you use to scrub?

I had the smiley faces too, didn't have much luck removing them but they disappeared after the tints were done.

I’ve heard white toothpaste can remove things like this. Or something like CRL sparkle.

Instead of paper towels use window cleaner and newspaper! I think that it scrapes glass better than paper towels. I use it on all glass and it doesn't leave gunk.

My hardtop had this as well. Looks like where a suction cup was attached during fabrication.

I have suction cup marks on my front windshield and have not been able to get them off either. My Bronco was built during the windshield recall dates and all this time I assumed the marks were leftover from that fix, didn't think that it could have been from the factory assembly!

I had the same. I’ve been delaying doing a ceramic coat until they’re fully gone. Date on hard top is 11/2022.

I don’t have wiper/washer because my Bronco was built pre-prep kit. So, I was thinking a nice coat of CarPro ceramic would help keep it clean - but, I want to ensure those pesky rings are completely gone first.

I have been using CarPro glass cleaner and they’re very faint at this point.

I'm assuming this is the outside of the windows. (no tint/defrost wires) If so, then make sure your window is clean, then wipe and wet the area with a sponge and water and use a razor blade. One stroke, one way. Wipe blade. Wet window again and repeat. Wiping the blade every time while keeping the window wet. Should come off.

Try a little WD-40 on a paper towel.

I had the same rings, annoyed me. I tried stoners, white vinegar, clay bar, razor blades and newspaper nothing worked. Finally got rid of them using griots glass polish then applied ceramic coating

Mine had them too. Tooth paste works great on glass ( when we get new dive masks we use that to help reduce fogging). Don’t use it on the iside because of the defroster grid. The circles are from the suction cups used during production.
