Are my windows messed up??
Everywhere on my windshield and side windows, there are many many clear dots. I was wondering if anybody knew what it was and if i can fix it? My car is only 1 1/2 years old and i used to go to the brushless car washes before i came across online forums.

Well it could be sap....only because you said it was on your side windows too. I have this going on my car as well right now. I use S+W and a MF its comes right off. Try a cleaner on it like S+W if you have it or a kind of polish. I dont think its from the car wash so no worries there. And the front window may be from tiny tiny rock "chips" i use the term lightly because its more like a wear mark. So try the S+W or the Polish and get back to us

Oh yea do the polish by hand,if your using that, if its just sap it should come right off no need to bust out the machine.

PB "Spray & Wipe", a true waterless wash. If it is sap a bug & tar product will usually do the job too. PB Bug Squash is a good one. At full strength it will remove your LSP. Really tough sap I still reach for Stoner's Tarminator.

Re: Are my windows messed up??
If this doesn't wipe off, it sounds like you need to polish the glass, as there might be mineral deposits on the glass. I guess they could also be etch marks, as those do happen when cars encounter very hard water, such as what you see from unfiltered sprinkler systems that draw from a well and hit the vehicle in parking lots or your driveway repeatedly.

If it is sap, rubbing alcohol will remove it. Let the alcohol soak on the sap for a minute, using a cloth, then wipe clean. Exterior only.
