The spots are on your glass, correct?

THIS IS FOR GLASS ONLY!!

Blot a little bit of vinegar on a terry-cloth towel and rub...

Are you sure they aren't water etchings? Can you feel them if you try to scratch them off with your fingernail? Does your fingernail remove them?

My truck is 2 months old and I have the same problem. Little white-ish circles all over my windshield.

Again, can you 'fleck' it off with a fingernail?

Remember -- acid rain and hard water can cause a very similar-looking spot on glass (or on paint).

Yeah, it flecks. I just checked.

My dad always told me that if I got water spots on the paint, I would have to wash the vehicle with just water and vinegar.

Does that sound right?

BTW, Thanks RP

This stuff is amazing. Makes your glass look like a mirror.

I found it at a local truck accessory shop.
