    Need help removing unknown residue all over windows-Please

    Hi everyone,

    I have a car that has residue on the windows and trim on both sides of the car.
    Weird thing is it’s not on the back or front windshield.
    I have no idea what the substance is because I got the car like this.
    I brought the car to a couple detail guys that used some compounds and stuff but with no success.
    Im sure it’s hard to see what it is and recommend what to do through pictures but at this point any help would be appreciated.

    check out the pics and help me you please!

    Looks to be water spotting. Can be tough to get off glass. But I will let the pro’s answer this one to give you the best course of action.

    In my experience I have had good luck with compounding with Duragloss Nu glass. And have used 3D Eraser with success.

    It does look like water spots but I never thought it would be that because I didn’t even know water can stain like that.

    I appreciate your reply!
