Now I know the tint makes this way easier to see but I can't figure out for the life of me how to make this go away. Windows are crystal clear until a little moisture is on them. I've tried everything I feel like. Any detail guys know any tricks? Or what it may be? My brother thinks it's hard water or acid rain from traveling to dealer?

I actually tried rainx on driver window and it almost "sealed" in some of the spots. It does cut down on the windows getting wet so it doesn't get this bad but I feel like I need to remove whatever it is before protecting

Did you try a clay bar?
Yep

Spends too much time on here
Sorry to hear that. That worked for me.

Same...Maybe carefully try something stronger like rubbing alcohol or acetone. Something etched your windows or at least got stuck on pretty dark solidly.

Have you tried vinegar and hot water?
Another product that I use is "Invisible Glass" A company by the name of Stoner makes it. I find it in the auto section in Walmart, Target and the like. The stuff flat works .
Before clear coat, we used to use 1/3 vinegar, 1/3 alcohol, and 1/3 hot water to clean the oxidation off old car finishes, immediately followed by a hot soapy car wash.

Your are one tough customer lol!
Have you tried a razor blade to scape it off? From your video looks as if something is "on" the glass and not pitted into it. Do your finger tips tell you anything about the surface?
I once got an older truck spattered with overspray from staining a deck. I used Xylol to take it off. Cleaned it right down to the clear coat. Dampened a rag, worked a 2 foot square section at a time and wiped it up immediately after. Followed with a hot soapy bath and wax. The Xylol didn't bother the front windshield any, but it wasn't tinted. I would test a small out of the line of sight spot first. Don't leave the Xylol on for very long.

Using a clay bar got rid of the effect on mine (along with some spray detailer).

You need to polish that out. A polishing compound, glass polish or lightweight rubbing compound will remove that.
