I also think that if the water on the glass dries too quickly, it hasn't had time to 'flush' the dirt away. The problem is usually on sun facing windows I find.
okay okay.... i know im dragging this topic out of the past but i was searching for spotting and...
i think i might have just had another lightbulb moment because of what i just read above,
of course we scrub the dam windows to lossen the dirt then rinse the god forsaken dirt off with pure water to leave a clean shiney window abviouse really!
what we should not do (what i suspect ive been doing) is scrub the glass losen the dirt then a quick flash of pure water that mixes with the other wet dirt and hey presto youve got hard/dirty water marks
make sense? maybe
