It's only glass, use the strongest stuff ya got. Stronger the solution, easier it is to whipe clean. Carb cleaner is my best friend.

You may try a more aggressive clay like this one. http://www.meguiars.com/?pro-auto-de...lay-Aggressive Out of all the clays ive tried this seems to get the more stubborn stuff off. Is it a large spot or would you compare it more to a sprayed pattern? Its a b**** to get off sometimes.

Thanks soonercivic ... there are a few spots .. it IS a pain .. at first I thought it was water so I just wiped it then it smeared all over the place lol .. so it's just a few smeared spots but it's CRAZY tough to get off, and I'm scared to use anything hardcore (I tried claybar, didn't even help a bit) but yeah maybe I can give this one a try, anyone have other suggestions??
Thanks everyone!!
