Default ticked at prom

Drove my car to prom, well after i washed it (i always wash my car at least twice a week) there were spots still on the windshield! Little white rings that looked like water that had dried! I took windex back to it and tried to get it off for about 30 minutes and still couldnt! You can't seem them unless you're right close up to the car, but I mean I like my car spotless. Anyone know what it could be? We had chemicals sprayed at my house, but the car was in the garage away from the chemicals. I wash the soap off really good so it couldnt be dried soap, but it feels rough on the windshield on the spots. Anyone know what to do?????

You can also try 2000 grit steel wool. It works very good for water spots.

I have used the razor blade with vinegar before. As for your car at prom. My son took my 2005 GT to his Senior Prom, same deal everyone wanted in the Mustang instead of the limo.

Different things will work better depending on if it's a resdue or an etching.

The 0000 steel wool with some white vinegar, clay or Mothers Chrome Polish are all safe approaches. Be careful with razor blades, and cleaner wax can cause issues with your wipers.
