I'm on the market for a glass cleaner. Let me know what you guys use :) Thanks!

Recently, I've been in love using Carpro's Eraser as a glass cleaner. That smell.... :)

I think you'll find that it's not so much WHAT cleaner you use as it is how you use it. Technique is far more important than product. Always use clean towels that have not been used on anything but glass and are not washed with waxing/general cleaning cloths and always use plenty of cloths is probably the best advice I can give.

I agree with Don and I do not use a dedicated glass cleaner.

I typically use a rinseless/waterless wash product.

Something like Stoner’s Invisible Glass would be fine if you don’t have or use those.

I started using the M37 glass cleaner last year. I found it cut the a/c film easier than the Stoners I used previously. I bought a gallon after I used up the sample.

On interior glass I use Stoner Invisible glass.

Exterior glass I'll use Invisible glass also but if I'm doing an AIO job (M37 360 or HD Speed) I'll run the 3" machine right up on the windows with that product instead of glass cleaner. The cleaners and abrasive lightly polish the glass and seal it at the same time, makes for a hell of an effect when the water just starts running away at 30mph.

I'm a fan of Sprayway glass cleaner.

Sprayway Glass Cleaner (https://www.autogeek.net/sprayway-glass.html)

It works great and you can find it just about everywhere.

+1 for Meg's concentrate.

Scott at Dallas Paint Correction disagrees. YouTube (https://youtu.be/GlGz1cNaITA)

He believes the dye causes stains but I have not found that to be the case.

I've been meaning to try ONR or the like (have a gallon of N914 on the way) for glass. I follow TRC and Levi's videos and saw that he too uses ONR for glass and even leather in some cases, I would have to think that N914 should work better as it doesn't have any glossing agents like ONR does?

I, too agree with Don.
I have D120 and Sprayway on my cart and the glass doesn't care what I use, just how I use it.
If I'm doing a rinseless wash (either ONR, Ultima or DG), I'll skip the glass cleaner for the exterior glass and just use a dedicated glass towel, either WW or a low-pile silky one) to dry the glass streak-free.

I use Stoner Invisible Glass on the exterior and finish it with a waffle weave glass towel. On the interior I have had great success with Zap Cloth. I cleans streak free without chemicals. Just wet it with water, wring it out and clean away.

Nextzett. I use it neat (you can dilute it 6 to 1). It cuts through the bugs and tree sap easily. I need a strong glass cleaner. I don’t want to scrub with some weak crap. It’s cheap too.

Wolfgang Uber (3oz per gallon of distilled water) & 245gsm edgeless microfiber terry towel works incredible for both interior and exterior glass cleaning & maintenance.

The biggest thing for exterior glass IME is claying and polishing with a non-oily polish. I prefer HD Polish+

For heavy smokers film or tons of grime on interior glass I use my PC7424xp paired with a 4" black polishing pad and Mckee's 37 Cockpit 20/20 glass cleaner which works great although Uber and a short nap MF towel can generally take care of pretty nasty windows.

I've tried just about all of them and my fav is Poorboy's glass cleaner. Stoner IG foam is my back up choice.
