$10? That's cheap! The other name brands are like $15+

Yeah it's great stuff, and for $10 you can't go wrong. I fully detail the car every 2 weeks and I do the insides and outsides of the windows every weekend because it's so cheap. It works so well you don't need to use much (i.e. just a really fine mist on the window) to get them crystal clear. Schmootz on the windscreen bugs me no end. In between details, whenever I am sitting at traffic lights I am always grabbing the microfibre towel out of the glove box to clean something off the inside of the windscreen because I want it absolutely perfect at all times. It annoys my gf so much (which makes me do it more lol).

I run a mobile detailing business and have found best, easiest and cheapest results from a simple thorough wipe down with damp microfibre cloth (squeeze out almost all water) followed by a second DRY microfibre cloth to dry off. I have tried many "crystal clear automotive window cleaner" type products, both cheap and expensive and none are worth a cent in my opinion - the key to good detailing results is often in the technique rather than expensive products.

Hmmmm. I may have just found my answer to streaky foggy windows at night!

Good to know, thanks mate! Plan to give my car a good wash today so i'll keep that in mind! Thanks!

Better use glass polish for outside such as Sonax or Autoglym.

For inside, use Meguiars glass no streak. Good stuff and 10 bucks only if i'm not wrong

If you'll read two posts above you'll see that someone has already recommended a method, using a slightly damp microfibre cloth to wipe the windows, then wipe them down with a dry microfibre cloth. That's pretty much free (water might cost you like $0.002 for the amount you'd use) if you already have the cloths.

I use car polish inside window - I find it that it doesnt "fog up" inside the window... am i weird?

Autoglym Glass Polish.

Don't use it where you have tint. Other than that, it's great stuff.

1 part white vinegar to 9 parts cold water.

Wipe down with damp microfibre, wipe dry with dry microfibre. Works brilliantly and safe on tint.

Metho and abit if window cleaner

And use two microfibre cloths

Stoner's Invisible Glass works well. I've bought the rain repellent version, beads the waters on my windscreen and it looks pretty haha
