Default un-exciting question

Does anyone have a trick to clean the inside of the windshield up in the pinch point? Other than finding someone with tiny hands, I can't get mine clean when looking down at dash from outside. Any help appreciated

I use a pliable rubberized spatula wrapped in a microfiber cloth.

I use something similar from Walmart. It is shaped like an iron, with a handle. I broke the long handle off and just use a short handle, the microfiber towel sticks to it. I also use Invisaglass and do the inside 3 times

Believe me, you’re better off buying one for yourself. I learned that the hard way.

You’d think that was the answer, but if I let it be known I went to a housewares type store without the better half, that might have consequences too...

I have one of these. It's really "low profile", so you can get down to the base of the windshield pretty well, without dragging you hands across the upper part of the glass..

I use something similar to the Walmart product, but the spatula/microfiber towel should work too.
