Streak-free windows=impossible

[dropt98chevy]

I can never get my windows streak free. How does everyone do it? I ahve tried Windex with a soft papertowel, t-shirt, and newspaper and I still ahd streaks with all of them. i have tried glass wax which does a decent job on the outside but not inside. I have also tried glass foam which din't do the trick either.

i cant either..i have heard invisible glass works real good but i have never tried it..

[dropt98chevy]

It is so damn annoying and it seems like almost all the windows at shows are streak free.

[amest33]

I use armor-all auto glass cleaner. it is $5 a bottle but it works.

[rcmaniac]

Try damp micro fiber towel..

[baggeddraged]

I want atleast 1 of you guys to try the damp microfiber towel.. Not wet, but like just run it under faucet really quick, sqeaze as much water out as possiible.. Ant it will just had ever so little water in it, and you just go over your window.. And it gets it.. Have a dry microfiber towel to get at any thing thats left behind.. :You could probably skip the damp part, but I find it being a little damp gets all the dust `n dirt off a little better..

My dad and I use Windex® Multi-Surface Cleaner With Vinegar, and it doesn't leave streak's, I just spray on and wipe with a shower towel, and The vinegar is fine to use on tinted window, instead of the ammonia based windex.

[zack7687]

Invisible glass is the way to go.

[burple]

There is some window cleaner that a friend gave me from his work. It is an industrial cleaner, but it cleans with no streaks better than anything I have used. Just sucks I can not use it on my tint.

[HAWK]

i use windex and newspaper.. no streaks on my window

do it when it's cooler outside.. dead heat of the day = impossible no matter what you do

[dagreenmonster]

screw all this window cleaning crap...just get a really clean towel, like straight out from the washing machine....and just scrub the hell out of the window....u will never get it cleaner then doing it this way...trust me, works for me every time, no streaks ever

Quik Detailer mist & wipe from Mequiars keep mine streak free and also works like rain-x.

[jhdwv21]

i use rain-ex window cleaner with newspaper and then put some regular rain-ex repellant on.
A friend of mine has tried to put his arm into my window twice thinking they were rolled down when they werent.

[jonw440]

Two words."1Z ,Sonus" The 1Z Glass cleaner along with a Sonus Detailing Micro Fiber towel will give streak free glass. I "used to use" newspaer and Eagle one 20/20 or Stoners Invisable glass. I would still have a few streaks. I could not get streak free glass. BUT once I used the 1Z Glass cleaner and the Sonus MF I now have streak free glass!

Make sure to clean glass in the shade.

a microfiber towel with a tight weave is the best to use for wiping the glass.

three liquids i'd use for cleaning the windows. water, with a MF cloth. or stoner's invisible glass, and lastly some product from ZEP. i think you have to have an account with them though, because i've yet to see it anywhere except from our (my father's) zep dealer.

for an added bonus on the stoner invisible glass product, it has a weak rain x effect to it. it doesn't last anywhere near as long as really rainx-ing your windows, but it does work, and if you clean your windows frequently, water will bead up quite well. the only shitty part, if your wipers are old(or dirty), your windows will streak a little bit on the outside.

last but not least, with the microfiber towels, they do get dirty and after alot of use, they will start leaving their own streaks on the window. feel free to wash them with care, using the same instructions on detailing sites for washing the towels you're supposed to dry your truck off with (i.e. dont use fabric softener and certain detergents, etc....if you're not sure, ask, ill find it for you). and, i can't say this enough, tight weave on the microfiber, if its furry, it won't work right.

[5918MIKE]

Give em a good polish first, then use spray way or invisible glass, both work well

[rcmaniac]

When I wash my microfiber towels, what I do is just put them in the wash with just water, nothing else.. It gets them cleaned up pretty good...

Best way to clean windows on the inside(especially if you smoke & get film on them) is to go to a gas station that keeps their window cleaner full & clean. Do them like you would your exterior. Rub on with the one side, then sqeegie them off. If you havent done them like this, you may have to do it twice. Then just take a dry paper towel & wipe them good to make sure everything is off. It wont smear this way & cleans them awsome.

[dropt98chevy]

I tried the window cleaner with vinegar real quick last night because my windows were bugging me and it didn't pretty good but I missed spots cuz I was hurrying.

[JustCruisin13]

some eagle one glass cleaner works with me i use some lintless towels that i get from my dad if not those i just use newspaper but after it gets really soaked it starts to leave lint on the window

[s10n20s]

key clean them in the shade. u might have to go over once or twice so the window will be clean when ur done. if all u do is smear the film that builds up on the windows around then ur gonna have streaks. *also* if u have armorall or any other products like that on the surrounding areas make sure ur rag or paper towel or newspaper is not brushing those areas.

[SteveI]

I use the blue MF towels and GM Glass cleaner. The GM glass cleaner is similar to invisible glass but less runny IMO. I love the stuff!

he brings up a very good point, although i wouldn't reccomend getting squeegied at a gas station, you can pick up a squeege at walmart or somewhere for scrubbing. scrubbing is good for scummy/filmy windows. whether you smoke, or armor all the hell out of your dash, you're bound to get this film on the window.

when you're wiping this film off with your paper towels, or microfiber, etc., its quite possibly going to streak as you clean. this is especialy true with microfibers cause you dont just throw them away everytime. so if your windows are very filmy, make sure you do more than just spray on and wipe off. add a scrub, wipe off, and another spray and wipe off to the formula, and your windows will be golden.

[pewter00]

hmm, just scrub harder w/ less spray, i use firestone glass cleaner and it works great, i can get it streak free right away

[baggedime]

Just use any glass cleaner and buff your windows with a clean,dry towel. It works great, 0 streaks

[383strokednova]

invisible glass is the best that i have used!!!

[Victoryreds10]

Invisible glass works great, alot better then armor all glass wipes, you can buy a can at wal mart for 5 bucks. no streaks for me

exactly man, this is exactly what i do, works like a charm....!

[quamen]

invisible glass witha mircrofiber towel and you will have no more streaks.

[383strokednova]

you had to have been doing it in the sun, or when your windows were hot, because i tryed it a hole bunch of different ways while mine was in the garage, and i didn't have any streaks. plus my windows are black, so you really can see streaks. i did the windex and newpaper worked perfect. i did the invisible glass and paper towel and it was perfect. i did regular water and a microfiber towel and it worked perfect..do it in the shade with the windows cool. good luck man

[dropt98chevy]

Tinted windows don't streak, you can never see streaks on my tinted windows its just my front window. I re-did it at night when it cooled down and still had streaks.

[Silent Warrior]

i use a product called ZEP Glass Cleaner. You can get it at the home depot.. its what the pro's uses. and i use that with newspaper.

maybe thats why mine didn't streak then, my front one is tinted too..good luck then bro.

[chizwizdiz]

I smoke too much in my blaze, you get used to the fog. haha. It even blocks some of the sun!!

[dropt98chevy]

well I used invisible glass and a "window cleaning microfiber cloth" thats what the packages said and the only streak is where i missed a spot in the corner.

[sniperguy_j]

I'm surprised no one has said using vinegar mixed with water.... works awesome....

[Alaska]

man..I got these ugly ass spots on my window now, like hard water spots. I used Clindo instead of Invisible Glass cuz I didn't have any. The Clindo normally works well...You can't see the spots unless you're anal and really close like I am...I want them GONE though!!!!

[What?]

yah I kno vinegar wit water, black/white newspaper, can't go wrong with that, been around for some time, really good comparin to other products

i mentioned that in my other post. my dad gets it from a zep dealer, but its probably the same stuff. works pretty well i think.

[lakeratokc]

take some steel wool (00 grade fine) rub the glass real good and removes all shit except acid rain then run over it with an amonia free cleaner i like foam style then wipe off with a lint free towel

[blksdime03]

just get any kinda window cleaner spray it on there scrub it with 00000 steel wool then dry it off with a paper towel or whatever..then try to wipe the rest of the streaks off with a dry microfiber towel..if that dont work wet the microfiber towel just i little bit..an there u go streak free windows !
