On the inside or outside? If it's on the inside I use a razor blade. On the outside I just use Windex wipes. I have noticed that back when I used Prime declorinator it made streaks that were near impossible to clean off if I accidently dribbled some on the outside glass. Do you use Prime, by any chance? After I went back to API declorinator I didn't have any more problems. I always clean the glass with the Windex wipes as soon as any water gets dripped on it. The longer it stays in contact with the glass the more time the calcium deposits have to stick to it.
 
I have got a problem similar with spots on the inside of the glass...I will try the razor blade...maybe that will work
 
Come to think of it...this has only arised since I started using Prime...I used to use the one that comes in the big yellow bottle...Aquaclear I think?

I wonder if that has anything to do with it...must be something in the chemical make up of the Prime?
 
those are water stains buddy use a razor that may help and if that dont work windex will do it but if it wont go off to windex go t owal mart or staples or home depot and ask for goo-gone taht stuff works like the charm.
