Default Windshield

I'm sure others have had this problem. It is not Corvette specific, but I hope someone can help me with this one. Heater core had a small leak. Leak was repaired. NOW, how do I remove the film off of the inside of the windshield?? I have tried every glass cleaner in the house and it still clouds up at night. Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance,

You might try rubbing alcohol or if that doesn't work lacquer thinner. If you use that, make sure all your windows are open and are left open for a long time until all the fumes are gone.

the invisible glass contains alcohol so it may work well for what he needs it for but after you see how it works you will probably be hooked on it

Any glass cleaner will remove the film.
What you are probably seeing is simple condensation, all the coolant is not out of your carpet yet.
Wait until July...the problem will be gone.
