Dont use dome cameras for outdoors...
Use turrets.

As fenderman says turrets are heaps better and easier to keep clean
But there is a product called rain x
For plastic it stops water pooling and the minerals drying leaving water spots you would just need to wipe them over every couple of mths
It’s an amazing product
It was developed for car wind screens

Are you sure they are water spots? You say the problem is only when IR is on, so you may be seeing IR reflections.

Which type of cam do you have - dome, turret or bullet?
