Default glass cleaner

O. K. I give up! Have any of you found a glass cleaner that really works? I have a hell of a time getting the inside clean and streak free.

Before the wise guys get going:
1. I don't smoke!
2. No we haven't been at the drive-in steaming up the windows. Besides I'm not that flexible any more, especially in a C5.

I use Stoner's Invisible Glass. Spray, and wipe down with a towel. Then spray again, and wipe down with a crumpled newspaper. It gets it sparkling clean.

Glass cleaner and newspaper. It's the only thing I've found that won't leave streaks.

I found that it's what you wipe it with that's important. Use newspaper with the stoners invisible glass. Paper towels don't work!

110% except I never tried the crumpled newspaper, with the cloth towel alone works for me.
