Cleaning the Front Window

Do any of you have tips on how to effectively clean the front window of a Camaro? Any time I try to clean it using product it streaks to sh*t.

Any suggestions?

I use a microfiber towel I got from pepboys and Stoner's Invisible Glass cleaner. Works real good and does not run or anything since it is like foam.

Id be intrested in hearing that as well, I don't believe I've ever even seen that mentioned. Do you just put whatever solution to clean your using on newspaper and go to town or what?

Re: Cleaning the Front Window

no idea what the theory is behind it, but it works like a charm. yeah just use windex or whatever have you and use newspaper in place of paper towels and youre set.

Re: Cleaning the Front Window

Newspaper does great for a streak free clean.
But if you want all that down in dirt use Barkeepers friend. Its the most abbrassive cleaner on a windshild with scratching it. Its in powder form so its only good for the outside.
