    I don't use ANY glass cleaners for interior windshield. I use another brands glaze and works better than anything I've tried

    Re: Glass cleaners

    I have been using Armor All Automotive Glass cleaner for a little while. Purchased a bottle to try after watching a few Youtube videos of detailers recommending it. I just ran out and switched back to Meguiar's D120.... wow, what a difference! I used to like D120, now I think it's a pretty poor product. With Armor All Glass Cleaner: 1) I never had streaks 2) It cleaned without any issues

    Now, when I try to do inside glass, I am facing problems I used that have all the time: 1) A kind of dry powdery residue is left on the windshield and back window and I have to re-clean 2 or 3 times to take it off. When trying to dry the glass, the glass is very grabby and it is very hard to move my glass towel around. This is especially annoying when I am at full arm extension trying to clean the far side of the windshield or back window.

    So I think I will try 1 more product: ONR + Isopropyl alchohol and if that doesn't do a good job (I have read this is the best glass cleaner you can use), I will go back to Armor All, even if it costs 50 times more than D120. It's just so easy to use, I don't need the headache

    Vanev was a guy on here a while back or autopia maybe both hard to say that was working with glass cleaners seemingly always, and he recommended the armor all glass cleaner if I remember correctly

    Yes I know they don’t sell it here stuff I would recommend here are sonax and Blackfire. Give those a try although a bit pricey. for personal use they will last a while

    I useto use a wide variety of glass cleaners and the TT approach for me has been for many years is using a glass polish - no streaking ever and the glass always looks factory fresh.

    In my experience a competent product (i.e. Stoner, et. al.) requires very clean towels. Any residual chemicals, including factory sizing chemicals is going to result in streaks. I'm not sure how to wash towels that will be free of all residual chemicals.

    This is what I have found. Uber or GGRW at 256:1 are making glass cleaning almost fun.
