    Until it's completely cleaned off and the glass is polished it will always come back. The rain is reacting with the junk that is stuck on the windows.

    If it's really bad just get some Etch Cream from a hobby store. It's a really really mild form of hydrofluoric acid. It will take scratches and spots right off glass then you'll have to polish afterwards.

    Good info!

    I don't recommend the brick cleaner.. your vision gets messed up in the rain. His idea is wayyy better.

    lol! Just don't leave the glass etch cream on for more than like 15-20 seconds otherwise you'll have frosted glass haha!

    It's the same stuff that is used to etch the VIN in the corner of the windows. It will take every thing right off so the glass will have to be polished just like you would a headlight. 1000-1500 wet sand, polish, then wax.
