    Household Glass cleaners?

    Is there any household glass cleaners thats good?

    I swear i tried everything in the world and my glass windshield can NEVER get clean without streaks and that stupid foggy hazyness that you cant see through when sun strikes it.

    If there isn't any good household products what should i buy from AG? Anyone have samples that they can send my way?

    Meguiar's Glass Cleaner is the best I've ever used and I've used a bunch.

    There are two important components to glass cleaning:


    1. Meguiar's Class Cleaner concentrate
    2. Microfiber Glass Towel.

    1 + 2 = Clear Streak-free glass

    I can vouch for Sprayway. No smear and can be found at the grocercy store, Wal Mart, etc. Inexpensive and safe for tint. I use a waffle weave towel for cleaning glass.

    I can vouch for Meguiar's and Sprayway. Stoner's IG is good as well.

    It's tough reaching places on interiors and maintaining uniform pressure and avoiding getting smudges from your hand. The Stoner's Reach Tool is worthwhile for getting corners and spotless glass.

    Tough to inspect and measure your progress without direct sunlight... and it's impossible to get thorough, streakfree cleaning while IN direct sunlight. I clean the outside glass using up n down wipes... back n forth on the inside. I still get streaks that need touched up after cleaning but at least I know whether they're inside or outside.

    Meguiars glass cleaner is great. I also use Stoners aerosol, which is more commonly found. The aerosol works a lot better than the spray, no clue why but it got rid of the haze on my windshield that only a detailers eye would see.

    Re: Household Glass cleaners?

    I think having a dedicated glass towel makes a huge difference in how clean/streak free you get your glass. I bought Surf City Glass Cleaner after a bunch of people raved about it here and I saw it at a local Pep Boys. Didn't impress me at all...until I got the waffle weave glass towels on BOGO here a while back. The towels made a massive improvement in performance. I use 2 towels...one for cleaning and one for drying. The towels soak up product like nobody's business so it is necessary. Having a high quality glass cleaner does make a difference, but even Windex didn't perform half bad with the waffle weave towels.
