The best thing I've found is to go to Walgreens and go to the section where they sell eye-care products. They sell little moistened towelettes that are supposed to be used for cleaning eyeglasses. (It notes on the box that they also can be used for computer screens.) I always use a couple of them to finish off cleaning the windows after I have used Windex and paper towels. The little towelettes get rid of the streaks and any residue from the paper towels. Also, never try cleaning the windows if the car is sitting out in the sun. Do it in the shade or in the evening when it's still light enough outside to see what you're doing.

Windex and newspaper
You must have worked at the Vickers Oil Co. too! They always insisted on that for doing the windows of the station. ;)

Paper is wood.....would you use wood? I use wood for well...any way I use that SPRAYWAY and towels. The Sprayway is hard to find but I did see it at Sams Club Saturday. Always spray on towel first. Is ok on plastics also.
My wife says it is at COSTCO also.
Outside RAINX.
Newspaper.......the comic section right?

I have been using newspaper for 25 years and wont change now. When I wash the car and can dry it fast enough, nothing is needed outside. On the inside I use windex, or Mopar glass cleaner in a can. Save the comic section RUBBERBNDMAN.... This will give you something to read while driving :-)

I use Meguiar's NXT Glass Cleaner and or Stoner Glass Cleaner: Invisible Glass. These glass cleaner are great. But the Meguiar's is the best one I have ever used, safe for window tint also. [sm=smiley20.gif]

It will dry too fast and leave more streaks.

I agree, newspaper & Windex works wonders on glass. Just don't try to use the newspaper to dry the CAR!

I use SParway my self. Works very well. I've used it for 10 plus years. It is difficult to find, but when you do, I think you'ld be happy

Once you try it you will buy it! Kind of like a HEMI!

Yes, I have heard people using newspaper for years. I don't get the paper and neither do my neighbors. Everybody is doing the news electronically these days.

Invisible glass has been my choice for the last 4 years along with the blue paper towels you get at an auto store. Afterwards I get another blue paper towel
and moist it with water and wipe the windshield again.

It looks awesome.

Be sure to do the interior of the car because the outgassing of automotive interior leaves a cloudy windshield so you want to make sure to clean that mess off.
