Try this: put warm water, some raw rice and a little dish soap. Let it sit a few minutes then shake it up really well. The hard rice seems to work magic on water marks. It worked for me with an old vase and may work for you. Use enough water to have room for shaking, a drop of soap to help loosen things up and enough rice to work but not clump (like a tablespoon of rice for a quart container/vase). Oh, don't use instant rice or and hot water or it might cook!
Have you tried Finish like you use as a rinse aid in the dishwasher?
Try Cascade or other dishwasher liquid. That might help if it is a residue. If it is etched, nothing will help.
CLR will get it clean. Follow the direction on the bottle and make sure to rinse well when you are done.
Hope that helps
: )
It may be that the class has been etched so nothing short of repolishing will remove the "water stains". I'd suggest testing by trying to scrape off any residue. If that doesn't work, you could try a clear sealant inside the vase to disguise the marks
magic eraser!
Good luck! I take tarnish off brass, waterspots off vases, you name it. I never knew that stuff was so handy outside the dishwasher!
