Triangular windshield cleaning tools

[SR99]

Arms/wrists definitely have to go into unnatural positions to clean internal windscreens, especially the heavily sloped ones.

Wondering if these triangle-shaped wands with a microfiber bonnet really help. Anyone use them, like them?

It looks like they only pivot in one directions, and it seems you'd want them to pivot side to side as well.

Yes they do and I wouldn't be without them!! :props:

I like the tool in the picture Bobby posted for working on the inside of the front and back windows of modern cars.

The yellow microfiber bonnet works the best and I think the company that makes this tool should also offer a 6-pack of these as an addition to their line.


What do you think Bobby?

I couldn't agree more Mike!

It seems replacement bonnets only come in a variety 3 pack. I would love to see both the yellow and blue microfiber bonnets offered in a 6-pack.....:props:

Actually that was my next question (whether AG carried the replacement bonnets and was just out of stock). I guess the answer is they aren't carried.

Is the yellow general-purpose nap MF or the blue is cotton/terry better for interior windows in your experience?

I've seen yellow replacement bonnets, but only for the Stoner model. Haven't seen replacements for the blue. There is also a kit that initially comes with 6 MF bonnets along with the 3 original bonnets and the wand (but that may be a reseller package not a Stoner package).
Wonder if the size of the triangular head is the same for Stone and Diamonite (might be other brands as well).

Actually you don't need the tool. Just have long figures, skinny arms and come from a circus background and you got it made! :dblthumb2:

I have one of those and it's made by Stoner's, the same company who brings us Invisible Glass. Works great for hard to reach corners and long windshields.

I love them around the HUD on the Vette and also the back window at the very edges near the deck.

I have two of these and they're great! I unscrew the plastic end and attach a small painters extension pole and clean the back window of my Mustang standing outside of the car. It's not too hard to climb into the back seat but getting out is tough when you're 65.

2x that and you can get the replacement bonnet three pack at of course where else walmart for what $3-5 great tool regardless of brand for def!! Are they all the same size not really sure they seem to be idk

I use the one made by Stoner and I don't use any of their bonnets.

I just drape a clean MF towel over the end and start cleaning. Change your MF often. I generally use three on a typical inside window. One to "wash" and two to dry and polish.
