Hello Texasmoo and welcome to Torquecars. What engine you got? (Feel free to post up any questions in the makes forum and well do our best to answer it. I know we already have a few Holden owners here including a couple from way over in Australia . The Holden forum goes in with Vauxhall and GM - sorry its a British thing!)

Just try washing the windows with some soapy water and a sponge. Although, this time of year (in England especially!) your windows will keep getting dirty because they freeze like every night! The best advice I can give you is to just clean your windows on a regular basis, that way water marks can be avoided.

Microfibre cloths are brilliant for windows. (Many kitchen shops sell them for cleaning stailness steel!)

if its for cleaning the watermarks after youve cleaned the car use a silicone wiper (squeegy) to remove most of the water

My main problem is when I brought the car they were already on there and i have tried a lot of different things but to no avail, Now I am just getting tired looking out the windows and seeing the water marks, plus I would prefer a clearer view But thanks to you guys for the suggestions, which I will try out and hope for the best...Cheers for that
