Spritz with some Red Wine Vinegar, lay paper towel atop, then respray the paper towel so its saturated. Come back 15 minutes later and remove paper towel, wipe up vinegar. You "may" need a light polish or paint cleaner at this point.
If that fails to work, then purchase some Chem Guys Water Spot Remover.......

Yup, like you would use for a salad dressing. The vinegar contains acids which help loosen and break up the mineral deposits.

You'd be hard pressed to find an OTC vinegar containing more then 5% acid, with a PH lower then the mid 2's. Go for it.....
