This is the best product I've used with NO STREAKS!
Stoner's Glass Cleaner. I've been using it for about 2 years now with no complaints. I use it with newspaper with great results.
You can find it a Target for about $5...:thumbsup:

This product is called Invisible Glass and is made by Stoner. It is the best I've ever used. Use newspaper as paper towels will leave excessive lint on the glass

i use a microfiber cloth to clean my windows with windex.
hell, I've used the microfiber cloth with water and it wont leave streaks, as long as you get most of the dirt off.

I use invisible glass too and use 2 microfiber cloths, first one to clean the window while it's wet with the spray and then after i've got it dry I use the second dry one to really polish it up.

I heard that windex takes somthing off the windshield. like the factory protector or somthing. So I use viniger and news paper. Compeltly streak free. takes alot of news paper as they get soaked quickly, but hey, most of ya get it everyday for 50 cents, cheaper than paper towels.

Geez you guys are meticulous! I use an old rag out of my toolbox and spit... My truck's pretty good sized, I don't need to see. It's the other cars on the road that need to look out.

Agreed on Invisible Glass + microfiber towels. It's awesome, and I've never been disappointed.

You might need to clean them twice the first time, but you'll be happy with the results.

I use Invisible Glass as well. One thing I have noticed though, is that whatever cleaner I use, I get the best results using newspaper to wipe down the windows with.

I swear GM puts some weird film on the windshields which doesn't wear off for YEARS. My cobalt, tahoe, GTO, my moms Monte....all the same "haze" type problem....lol
