Ive watched someone remove etched water spots off my back window with a razor blade. You could probably do the entire back window in 4 hours if that.

If a razor doesn't work (be careful or you will scratch the hell out of the windows), you could sand and buff. Use 2000 grit wet paper. Sanding and buffing will take longer than for hours though, but the results are amazing.

I had water spots that steel wool and razors would not take off...this stuff took them off, except it takes a lot of elbow grease. Read and follow the directions on back of bottle.
