    For the glass, you can of course use a good glass cleaner and clay. I have had success with RainX removing mild water spots. You could look at UC, #105, or #4 for stronger cleaning ability.

    The paint is of course more exciting...

    While you will want SwirlX on your shelf, UC would certainly be the place to start, esp by hand.

        UC is pretty strong on its own, best to start with a foam pad.

            If the glass is actually etched (which is hard to do), you would be in some trouble.

            Otherwise, you can see the above post, for the basic things to try, if you didnt yet.

              You could use the UC on your windows too.

              ...Or did you already try that?

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
