With all respect to RickRack, I wouldn`t touch my brand-new baby with razor blades or steel wool.
Windshields are weird these days, I think I discovered the other week that my RSX has some sort of polymeric coating or lamination on the inside (along the lines of that ill-fated anti-laceration stuff that GM put on the insides of the windshields for a year or two). From the picture they look like really small specs. Do you have any abrasive or chemical (paint or metal) polish that isn`t in storage? That would be worth a try by hand, might take it right off. IIRC you are a Zaino guy, you`d probably want to give their glass polish a try if you have any when you "un-store" your stuff.
