Sorry to dig up an old thread but I was curious to know how this turned out.

Years ago some family members were involved in AMWAY and they used to carry a glass polish which worked very well. It removed a ton of chemical and acid rain spots on my Accord's windshield and mirrors and it didn't cause scratches.

I did a google search and I found some products which might do the trick.

Glass Polish

Z-12 Clear-View Glass Polish: Zaino Store

Redigging an old thread, but I noticed no one put Diamond Magic. I clean all glass (no mirrors), and porcelain stuff in my house with this stuff. For glass, this is a miracle, especially for those with hard water spots. I wish I took before and after pics of my buddies ride, but ALL his windows were caked. With a bit of elbow grease, Diamond Magic restored his windows like new. I also know it takes off any gooey junk left by old stickers (though goo gone works just as well for that)... Anyway, I highly recommend this to anyone liking "perfect" windows...

BTW, don't get it on the paint cuz it's a light abrasive...

I've never heard of Diamond Magic. Where did you buy it?

No expert but I would change my blades because 1) they might be the problem 2)they might be extending your problem because they are picking it up and spreading it all over.
just a thought

It sounds like you've got calcium or lime deposits on your glass. I got the same thing on my glass most likely because I use well water at my home. I used a product called Duragloss #755 and it worked like a charm. I found it at a local auto supply store (not a chain auto store though). It's a glass polish. Bear in mind though that since it is a polish and is applied in the same way wax is to paint that a little elbow grease will be needed. I did my 2000 Explorer's windows before I sold it to make room for my '08 EX-L and they looked brand new again. It took me about an hour to do all the glass. Cost about $7.00. Let me know if you use it and how it worked out.

Duragloss makes a great line of products that rival some of the best out there ... Duragloss Glass/Interior Cleaners
