I just used car polish... was easy.

I get a lot of this on my drivers window, as the wipers wash the window washer crap off my windscreen onto the drivers window! Rear View Mirror gets it bad too..

Did the guy from Smith and Smith tell you what it was. I had a similar problem with my trueno and was told that normal products don't get rid of the spots (looked like water marks) as it's actual damage to the glass service from mild acid rain. The polish they gave you would have taken a small layer off the glass and fixed it up all pretty like.

yeah they said that it was acid rain in jappers that caused it in the 1st place. I think it is a type of glass polish but i cant remember off the top of my head what it is called. It's in a reasonably small bottle and it's made somehwere in the states. Cali i think. But it works so meh.....

Most likely to get water spots on windows from not drying off the windows and leaving in the sun ......overtime this accumulates ...leaving a pretty permanent stain.......... expensive method of removal is buying a glass cutting compound would make the windows clean in a matter of minutes with minimum elbow grease...the cheap option is getting "chemico" its in a pink round container used for cleaning bathrooms, honest to god this shit works just takes more elbow grease...
