Clay the glass and use PBW Spray & Gloss. It will be slick as a possum's tail and water will slide right off as well.

PBW = Poor Boys World I think...

But yeah, I polished all the water spots out of my windshield and then waxed it a few weeks ago too. Looks a lot better and water sheets right off.

You may be able to find Glass Wax somewhere out there. I used to use it on my windows all the time. Worked amazing. It came in a tin can and was in liquid form. You would apply it with a slightly damp sponge, let dry and buff off. Love to find some more again.

I used a green pad (only because I had nasty water stains on my glass that I never thought I'd be able to get rid of) and a Medium compound. (I used Poor Boy's SSR2)

Used very little to no pressure on the Cyclo heads so it left no haziness afterwards or anything.
