Try clay bar
buy a new one if you have one - do not use the one you used on the paint surface.
Use detailing spray to keep the clay bar lubricated and run it across the windshield. Fold occasionally to get new surfaces.
This works well for skipping wipers as well.

Polishing Glass:
Once the glass surface has been washed and cleaned (with detailers clay) any minor imperfections can be removed with an abrasive glass polish (Autoglym Car Class Polish) be aware the some imperfections cannot be removed and you may have to replace it. If you can catch your fingernail in the scratch 0.4 Mil (0 .004 –inch deep) you should consult a professional glass repair / replacement company.
A replacement windscreen can sometimes be claimed on an insurance policy without loss of no-claim bonus, dependant upon coverage (check first with insurance company).
Some windscreen ‘glass’ is actually a plastic resin and will scratch easily, consult your dealer to find out what material was used for the OEM windshield.
