Water Spots

Alright fellas, how do y'all get rid of water spots on glass and paint?

I waxed the new truck and it took care of most of the spots but the windows look like sh!t.

I've tried spray wax and windex and neither did much.

Thanks in advance.

I usually use the stuff in the black bottle, it's just called glass cleaner but it works well.

White vinegar on both the paint and glass and if that does not get it try 100Grand glass polish on the glass. If the spots are etched into the clear you may have resort to wet sanding if polish and vinegar do not do the trick on the clear.
