Try some Dawn dishwashing liquid, white vinegar and water. You might also have to hit it with some polishing compound afterward (wipe with microfiber towel) and follow that up with Windex.

A couple of ways to tackle this.

First, try a water-spot remover like CarPro Spotless or a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and distilled water. These products are worth having on hand for speedy removal of these mineral etchings.

If that doesn't work, you will need to polish them out. Use either a heavy cutting compound (glass is hard and can take more aggressive compounds) or use CarPro CeriGlass. Use by hand or machine.

CeriGlass can be bought as kit or a single item. The kit is better value and comes with a small applicator pad. On a machine, use a Rayon Pad.

If vinegar & soap solution doesn't work try Chemical Guys Water Spot Remover. It is AMAZING on water spots. Needed to get rid of some on my 02 TBird and tried everything short of a mechanical buffer and rubbing compound. The Chemical Guys stuff works. Easy to use with no residue. No damage to paint, chrome, or glass. Received mine 2 days after ordering. Great product, great service.

The 4 oz bottle should be all you need.

Hmmm...I'll have to check to see D, but my guess is I have V1 and probably have half a liter left.
I have the older version too. I don't use it often, more of an insurance policy, so I wont need to get the newer formulation for a LONG time. Was curious as to whether the V2.0 is noticeable better.

I recently had the same question. I ended up using Zaino glass polish which worked well for me. https://www.zainostore.com/product/Z-12.html

I got a lot of great suggestions here, but I had a very old (like at least 7 or 8 years old) bottle of this stuff in my garage, so I figured I would give it a try and it worked great.
