    Re: Interior Windshield Cleaning

    I’m not as devoted as most on here, but I use the glass cleaner from the brand whose name starts with a large bird. Passes with flying colors.

    I have since used the Zapcloth and now I am convinced.
    It is a superb product. Just a little water and it cleans glass without streaks.

    I don't see how water alone removes oil without streaking?

    Re: Interior Windshield Cleaning

    I apologize for repeating something but is steel wool safe on inside of windshield, I thought the manufacturer put some UV protection on there?

    Re: Interior Windshield Cleaning

    have never had an issue of any kind using #0000 on interior windshields. very important to use #0000 and I don't really use a ton of pressure and grind it into the glass.

    Yes, Invisible Glass and if it does not work for you, you are doing something wrong. I get crystal clear windows with the following method:

    1) First, clean the outside surfaces with Invisible Glass and paper towels to get all the road dirt off. Do twice if needed.
    2) Next, clean the outside surfaces with Invisible Glass and clean paper towels and immediately dry sections with a quality microfiber cloth.
    3) Next, clean the inside surfaces with Invisible Glass and clean paper towels and immediately dry sections with a quality microfiber cloth.

    Done!

    I use Invisible Glass pump spray, not the can.

    The only problem I see with your method is the paper towels. Yes, you're buffing after with microfibers to prevent streaks but the paper towels have wetting agents in them that are leaving excess residue behind. You're getting it with the microfiber after, but you're needlessly increasing the amount of residue that you're having to pick up, and opening yourself to needing more towels than really necessary.

    The paper towels are used to initially wipe all the crud off using Invisible Glass and to apply the Invisible Glass. I hate getting my microfiber towels dirty with the initial cleaning. It wasn't till I started using microfiber towels that I easily got streak-free windows

    All I can say is, on a pitch black night with headlights coming at me the other way, I have no streaks on my windshield (or any other window) and I am one hell of a picky bugger.
