I have a friend that swears the way to get rid of that window dirt that doesn't seem to want to come off, is to keep your windows waxed along with the rest of the car. (The dirt I'm talking about is the dirt around the area cleared by the wipers)

I can almost see keeping the sunroof waxed, because the dirt and spots look really bad there, but the windshield?

Anyone else do this?

Thanks,

AccordCroz.

I wax my windows and windsheild or use rainx (depends on what I have at hand) it makes a HUGE difference when scraping your windows or driving in pouring rain, you can actually see!!!

I use Wet Paint on all the windows and it does indeed help them stay clean. Bugs from a trip come off easily as well as the painted surfaces. I haven't tried wax but it may do the same thing.

I have the RainX wipes with anti-fog and absolutely hated them.  It seemed as though it was applied to havily, and then after driving my windows still fogged up and I couldnt see anything so I tried wiping it away but it only made matters worse.  I give it a huge thumbs down.  But it seems encouraging that all of you guys have had a good experience with it.
