The Magic Eraser's unique property is its ability to clean dirt from micro-textured and semi-porous surfaces, such as wall paint and boat seats. I'll try it anyway, but I doubt it will work. What about one of those clay-bar kits? They're $15, I'm a little hesitant...

I figured it out. GLASS SCRUB. This stuff WORKS. A lot of patient rubbing, and it cuts through. It's gritty like toothpaste. You have to keep it wet with a little water or it will scratch if you rub too hard. The first picture shows a small area with the spots scrubbed away. It takes arms, and patience. The dirver's side window took a half-hour to clean.
They also make a rain repellent gel, it's like Rain-X without the alcohol, so a little goes a long way. We'll see how well it works next time it rains.
THANKS to all who replied!

Hydrocloric acid or Glass De etcher.... put a little on the rag and it will come right off. Do not get any on the paint... because it will destroy it.
I do this every day... i work for a window cleaning company. Bellieve me, it works.

Nope, I actually tried a strong Zinc Chlorate & Hydrochloric Acid cocktail, and it didn't even touch it.
No big deal. AS I stated in the post above, the problem is solved. I wanted to post the photo of the product and its results to help anyone else who stumbled across this thread.
The Glass Scrub also seems to be a good prep for window decals. it seems to remove anything and everything from glass, from old water spots to oil residue. It leaves the glass laboratory clean.'89 Hydrostream Vegas XT, '90 Merc 2.4 Bridgeport PCU EFI

H20 Spots
I always use a D.A. with a 1/2" back up pad, and 80 grit paper. Works like a charm, spots are gone, and the sun glare is not as intense. Kidding of course.
