You might call a few local glass repair shops and see what they say.

If it was mine, I might try some plain vinegar in an unobtrusive corner and
see what happens. Might also try some de-liming bathroom cleaner.

I suspect that if there is a lot of dirt in it, it won't come clean. If you
discover a cleaner, let me know.

I wonder if some glass polisher might work after you get the top layers off?

is very thick and tough. Any help would be appreciated.
