    That's funny, I was just about to post the same product suggestion, at
    almost the exact same time when I saw your post. I know a house-cleaner
    that knows nothing about automobile products in general, but she found
    the Armor-All brand to be the best glass cleaner to use as well.
    I generally don't like Armor-All products, a neighbor once "helped me
    out" by putting armor-all tire treatment on my top in large quantities.
    It took a long time to get it off, and the car still had greasy streaks
    running down it after several washings.

    But the glass cleaner does work very well, I use it in the house and on
    my car windows.

    It's the only stuff we've ever found that reliably doesn't
    streak on mirrors in the bathrooms...

    Use Bon-Ami cleanser on a wet sponge (only Bon-Ami, no other brand).
    Rinse, then polish with newsprint.

    BTW, don't clean glass in the sun, or it will streak.

    Re: Glass cleaner

    Years ago I got a great tip from a professional janitorial employee. Use a
    little ammonia in water. Ammonia is a great cleaner and evaporates without
    leaving any residue behind. I keep a spray bottle handy for windows and any
    other little cleanup job. It works superbly, and it is very inexpensive. I
    use the mixture all the time for everything (top, dashboard, door panels,
    seats, etc.) and the same 2 quart ammonia bottle has lasted for over six
    years!

    Sure, but I'd suggest using either really soft water,
    distilled water, deionized water or, in a pinch, even
    Aquafina water ;-)

    Glass cleaner

    When I clean the glass in my baby, it streaks after 24 to 48 hours (top up
    or down). I've tried Windex, a "professional" spray cleaner, a
    water/alcohol mix, and Streak Free (a glass polish). It doesn't matter if I
    use T-shirts, towels, paper towels or newspaper - they still streak! Any
    ideas on a way to clean them so they stay streak-free for a few days?

    Stoner's Invisible Glass with a microfiber cloth works very well and
    seems to keep the windows clean for a couple of weeks. Everything else
    seems to fog back up very quickly.

    Professional window cleaners use dishwashing liquid with water.
    Give that a try before going out and buying some chemicals..

    Re: Glass cleaner

    I tried the Bon Ami. It worked very well but was kind of messy to use
    inside the car. It has become my cleaner of choice for my glass shower
    door, however!

    Next I tried the amonia/water mix. It was clearly (no pun intended) better
    than Windex or the "Professional" spray cleaner.

    I'll try the Armorall this weekend and let all know the outcome.
