Best Window Cleaning Product?

Usually when I"m driving after washing my car, I can still see a small smear on my front windshield, it's really annoying me!

Does anyone have a good windshield cleaning product that works inside and outside? Thanks!

+1 on the invisible glass. In the aerosol can is the best IMO.

as for the water stains.... I have no idea... I have always kept my windows clean usually my winshield washer fluid leaves stains and those just rub off with a bit of elbow grease.

Big Rig Trucker trick for cleaning glass

Use Lemon pledge on glass and paint.
It is also known to be used on motorcycles on the windshield & paint.

I just put window washing fluid (same as I use in my Yaris) on a rag and it works just fine. Cleans well, no streaks.

Looks like Stoner - Invisible Glass is a good pick.

Is this product made for auto windows? Or is this for like anything (inside house)?

Also two people said newspaper ._. is that a joke? haha

It can be used on any glass, including tinted glass.

Newspaper is definitely not a joke. Get a few pieces of old newspaper, crumple it up, unravel it, use it. You'll see.

For the outside...use 000 super fine steel wool (home depot). The steel wool wont scratch the glass and leaves the glass silky smooth.
