how bad are the water spots? I would start off a bit less aggressive, white pad and 205? Step it up if you have to, or get a product intended for glass like DP High Performance Glass Restorer (http://www.autogeek.net/dp515.html)

I just started trying out Duragloss Nu-Glass. $8.00 for 8oz at my local Car Quest, you can also order it here at autogeek if you like.

Tried it out on a windshield on a firetruck......stuff was awesome.

Might get a gallon next time, it's that good.

What about Vinegar since it is a Windshield?

Glass Science Glass Scrub has worked pretty well for me.

I'm a fan of Meg's Medium Cut Cleaner on windows with either white or orange 4" CCS pads. Couple passes and they were good as new.

DP Glass Restorer has always worked for me. Can be used by hand or machine.

I've had good luck with the DP Glass Restorer and the Diamondite Glass Cleaning System.

Both of these work well IME.

Poliseal + yellow CCS pad 4 inch on PC speed 6 worked for me... leaves some protection behind also to prevent them next time around!

Try claying the windshield just as you would the cars finish. I do it a couple times a year and it's really amazing what it picks up. I'll normally use M205 or something similar then throughly clean it and I'm good to go.
