    I have good luck with hydrogen peroxide. Rub it on and wipe it off.

    WD40: leave it on for a little while then wipe off. Great stuff! After they are cleaned keep 'em clean with hydrogen peroxide (which is also great for appliances).

    I too have hard water marks and have used everything under the sun, including on the advise on the internet sites with no positive results. Will have to install softener.

    Try Magic Eraser. It works well on soap scum. The glass company that installed my shower surround told me about it.

    I used to clean houses professionally and what worked every time was pure lemon oil applied with a microfiber sponge. Wipe off any excess with paper towels. It leaves a transparent barrier with a fresh lemony smell and it repels water spots and makes them easier to clean next time around. My customers thought I was a miracle worker... I didn't tell them how easy it was. Now you know one of the trade secrets.

    I am a professional housekeeper and have used straight white vinegar, sprayed on and left for about 1 minutes then attack it (gently) with one of those little single-edged razor blade scraper. It'll come clean, but be gentle or you may scratch the glass. After it's cleaner, spray with WD-40 and wipe dry. Will stay clean for a long time.

    Have you ever tried CLR? You can buy it at any home improvement store, or even your grocery store. Smells awful, but it works like a charm.

    Try spraying Vinegar and scrub it lightly - may have to repeat multiple times, then a finish cleaning. You can read more ideas here http://behindtheshower.com/clean-water-spots-off-shower-glass/
