    I use vinear , Alcohol and water. I put my led flood lights in front of the car shining through the front window. It will show any spots you missed. Also
    Wipe one direction on the outside the the other direction on the inside so you can tell if it's on the inside or out .

    Windows--Glass

    I use a 2 microfiber technique.

    I start by misting the first normal 360gsm microfiber with stoners invisible glass. I wipe half of the windshield and make sure I scrub the whole thing down.

    Then I quickly change over to my glass specific Korean microfiber and buff the entire window regardless of whether that section is still moist or not.

    After hundreds of cars you get a technique and kind of get in a groove, once you get that down you can churn out crystal clear windows all day.

    Also make sure you do this in a well shaded area. Sunlight will always cause streaking regardless of product/technique.

    I find the best tip and technique I use an share is to have LOTS of clean, dedicated glass towels.

    Once you use a towel to remove ANY type of film off a single window then quit using that towel or you'll simply transfer the film back and forth thus you're fighting yourself.

    See my article here,
