Removing Stubborn Water Ring Around Top of Tank

[PeterC99]

I've tried soaking and scrubbing with vinegar, CLR, and Clorox and cannot get rid of this stubborn water stain. Know I will barely see when filled with water. Any other suggestions to remove this water ring?

Magic eraser worked for me and is safe

This and possibly a razor blade. Had to use both on a 180 that sat neglected for quite a bit.

Agreed with both above. My rimless have the same build up and is very annoying. If my flipper doesn’t get it then I break out the razor blade and magic eraser.

Also tried the razor blade with no success. When I run my finger around the water ring, the glass feels perfectly smooth. Hoping that there is something out there that works.

Razor blade for sure. Good as new.

Ok, now I’m confused. I thought razors always worked. Hmm

My tank picture above is after hours of scrubbing and using the razor blade.

Will be trying the Magic Eraser next though.

I’ve never tried the magic eraser but have heard good things. Good luck with it. I know that’s frustrating.

Tried the magic eraser and razor blade and the water mark is still there. Has anyone tried 1000 grit sandpaper?
