   There’s a commercial product designed to dissolve lime in bathrooms – I’ve found it useful for difficult stains. The stuff that foams and clean dentures is also good at getting out difficult stains. (I’ve used it a lot for wine stains.)

   I wonder if a baking soda / vinegar paste rubbed in and then throughly rinsed would work?

   I **** to give away my secrets, but, here you go.

   Use toothpaste and a brush. There is enough grit in the paste to clean the windshield, but not enough to scratch the glass. Works great. Use a plain white toothpaste. Good luck

   two things to try BOTH with a VERY LIGHT TOUCH

   Use regular old white toothpaste… it has a MILD abrasive. And DON’T press hard.

   Also… car dealers use a window cleaner with very FINE STEELWOOL and a VERY LIGHT TOUCH

   Good luck! You’ll soon be singing, “I can see clearly now…”

   Vinegar and water. 50/50 mix and paper towels.

   for really stubborn water spots i have scraped them off with a razor blade. while in the shade on a cool windshield, i spray the windshield with windex (for lubrication) and scrape away.

   just make sure you use a good accute angle on the razor (dont even think about trying to use it at a 90 degree angle) and for the love of god please use a single edge safety razor blade.

   000 steel wool from the hardware store will take it off and not scratch the glass.
