What's the best window cleaner?

[dg-1984]

I am looking for the best way to clean the windows on the inside.
Mainly the front window.
The windscreen has been replaced previously and the circle suction cup marks won't shift.

Any thoughts or home remedies that would clean it up?

Thanks for that, using my phone and couldn't search properly.

For stubborn marks etc I steamclean them then buff. If I am just going over them, I put a mf under very hot water, ring it out, run over the glass and buff. I have tried so many different window cleaners, household and car specific, they are all average and nothing is streak free

My fav is Sonax Glass Cleaner.

@Scottyg is that the Sonax extreme one ?

 

[Bulldog]

I use Auto finesse crystal on the inside & Sonax extreme on the outside. With good quality glass cloths.

Nope, just the standard glass cleaner. In a Silver and black bottle.

This seems to be getting great reviews: http://www.obsessivedetail.co.uk/clarity-windows-300ml

It also seems that reports are suggesting all their products are highly rated.

The only thing I want is a cleaner that doesn't smear, that annoys me. So far I've used two that get the thumbs up:

Turtle Wax ClearVue Glass Cleaner
Sonax Xtreme Glass Nanopro

(going to try the standard Sonax one next thanks for the tip @Scottyg )

Well I tried something my wife had under the kitchen sink, was a Mr muscle touch up cleaner, used it on the house mirrors and was excellent so gave it a try and worked an absolute treat window now super clean.
Cleanest it's ever been.

I have that in spray cans at work maybe a can may fall into my bag and end up in my garage for future use and give it a try.

 

[DeanoC]

Fine mist on. One microfibre to remove and then a second to buff. Nothing will clean better.

I use the Nanolex glass cleaner after a wash - http://www.nanolex-shop.co.uk/glass-cleaner-144-p.asp

Easy to apply and does not smell like some others ...

Just as a follow up to my earlier post. I'd cleaned the side windows on our VW Jetta with the Sonax Xtreme Glass Nanopro. I didn't do the front or rear screens. This morning the side windows only had condensation on them whereas the front and back were frosted up. Will need to test this some more but was interesting.

 

[dg-1984]

I use rainX on the back and side windows and and water just beads off once start driving.
Don't use it in front as it smears after a while of using window wipers at low speed.

 

[Bugeye_bob]

never had a issue with good old AG Glass Cleaner, you can use it all round with no problems.

 

[Pook]

What cloths do people use when using these cleaners? Standard microfibres seem to hold too much lint

 

[Bristle Hound]

On the wife's MINI I'm using Infinity Waxes Rapid Detailer on all the exterior glass
Working quite well as hydrophobic coating on the glass at the mo

I use turtlewax window cleaner from Halfords. I had problems with my sportback (see display pic) where the dog in the rear would sneeze and snort all over the inner windows. This and a cloth from Amazon made it really easy to clean. I once also spilled bodily fluid onto my rear view mirror in my e46 330ci (don't ask) and again, came off really easily, excuse the pun.

 

[AndyT306]

i've just bought some gtechniq cleaner, will let you all know what it's like!

This is not bad at all

Autoglym Fast Glass, Dodo Juice Clearly menthol & Autofinesse Crystal are very good products
