clay bar most likely wont take it off, maybe just a little. Your gonna need glass polish. The griots stuff is amazing, i have a ton of their products including their buffers. Don't buy the fine glass polish since that wont remove anything, go with the smaller normal glass polish and it should easily take off all the water spots on your windshield.

yeah, bar clay bar didnt work. didnt pick up anything when i ran over it.

the spots are very notice when wet, but when i wipe it with a microfiber towel, the glass
is spotless and streak free.

i dont know if im using the right terms. i wish i could take a picture of it, but it does not show anything.
