How to I remove stubborn water spots on my car window?

No matter where I park at the place I'm renting at, either the driveway or next to the sidewalk, the water from the sprinklers will spray onto my car windows. I have a product that will remove the water spots from the body but unfortunately, this product doesn't work on windows. I've tried Windex, Perfectly Clear, some other car window spray, Limex, and vinegar. So far nothing works. Its really hard to remove and scratching it with my fingernail seems to remove it but at an awfully slow rate! So can anybody help me with this please?

    sprinkle baking soda all over your window -

    then spray with a spray bottle ( water or vinegar and water )

    use a newspaper to wash windows -

    rinse windows -

    apply rain x - to your windows and make sure you reapply more often than the packages says - due to the fact you are constantly under sprinklers -

    the bakeing soda will turn into a paste with the water - making a very slightly abrasive or practically non abrasive cleaner that wont scratch your windows but will remove the spots -

    of course you will have to rinse ( thats why i suggested the water bottle you could use whats left to rinse ) ( and a towel to dry )

    and the rain x should help prevent water spots from forming again _

    first off car windows have a wear resistant coating on then to help with wear from weather and wind (when the car is moving). using house hold cleaners will lave streak marks on the windows. you should be using window cleaners that are maid for car windows. try using any brand of auto motive window cleaner they all work great I have tried them. then after you have cleaned your cars windows coat them with a product called rain ex it will make the water bead off the windows just like a good wax coat.

    Try a wet drier sheet it works wonders on my windows. It really works. It will remove bug juice from the front of a car or truck too. Good luck. This guy rob sounds like he just crawled out from under a cabbage leaf. This house hold product will not leave streaks on your window. I think he is envious of my answer being more original than his. Please, wax how lame.

    there are products (i forget any specifically) that cause the water to just bead and roll off, alot of new cars come with this treatment. maybe Armorall makes one.

    put half water & half white vinagar in a spray bottle spray on windows & wipe with newspaper, try not to get any on your paint job.
