Hello Forum,
What is the best way to clean windows without the streaking you commonly get?

Thanks

So maybe you know how I can get an extremely stubborn bird crap stain off of my passenger window. It doesn't look like there is any particulate on the surface, but their is definitely an almost greasy like residue that just refuses to come off.

As for streak free windows, I break out the windex the same way I do at home.

Groits garage makes a very nice lint free towel specifically for windows. Their spray cleaners seems to work nice also.

What about the inside's of the windows... My little sister doesn't get the concept that her hands leave marks all over my windows. I have tint, and don't wanna ruin it and have heard a lot of the products that claim to do that job without streaks but will still make my tint the awful purple color... suggestions?

Best Window Cleaner is a spray Foam Cleaner made by Sprayway. It used to only be available through certain vendors, but within the last two years it has become more available through major retailers. We can get it now at the local WalMart for under $3 a can.

Just use with a paper towel. You guys will thank me.
