Help with unwashable spots

I have a problem with these spots on my car. I just got it painted a few months ago which wasnt really cheap and I've washed off dried water spots before with no problem. I watered my grass a few days ago and my car also got a little shower with it. Today I was washing my car and I noticed that the spots from the sprinkler didnt come off. I washed it a second time and the spots still didnt come off. These spots are also on my window and also cannot be washed off. I tried to spray soap and water on the spots on the windows and the paint and it will not come off. I tried waxing the paint and the spots will not come off. I dont know why the spots will not come off since I have always washed my car with the outside water and the sprinklers use the outside water. I hate these damn spots. Has anybody had a problem with these spots? Anybody know a good way to get rid of these spots? I would be really appreciative if anybody could give me some info on any product or technique to get rid of these spots.

I've heard clay bars are good for that kind of thing. I don't have first hand experience though as I don't take care of my paint anymore.

Ya know, about a month after I bought my 97 200sx Se-r new, I noticed something on my car that I thought was pop. It was on the roof, down the back window and down the trunk. I took it into work and washed it and could not get it off. I looked closer at it and noticed my paint was bubbling off. Well I found out that somebody was hating on me and poured brake fluid on my car. It ate up the paint. Fortunately I took it back to the dealer and bitched and they got me another car. I don't know if this could be the same sort of thing but thought I would mention it.

I was able to get the spots off my windows with a razorblade and will look into getting a clay bar. I hope they have one at murrays or something cause I've never even heard of Meguires. I dont know, maybe they dont have them up here in Michigan. Thanks everyone.
