Default Cleaning inside windshield

Is there any tool and or advice on how to keep the inside of the windshield clean. It is so hard to reach and keep the haze off. I use microfiber towels but after a couple of days the haze is back. Non-smoker, garage kept and windows closed,

I have seen magnetic ones that do an ok job and get to the edge of the interior glass, but the one I had saved is a dead link. I have tried the ones on a wand, but they just don't work on these cars. I end up using a microfiber and a paint stirring stick.

Here is an example with mixed reviews and it is way $$$, but you get the concept.

I use an "Ultimate cloth" towel that they sell here. Just damp with distilled water. Works very well. I admit reaching everywhere with my hand will always be a challenge but I manage. Luckily I'm tall and have long arms. Note: I know this is not per the instructions but I actually dampen the towel with window cleaner and it works pretty well.

"Use the cloth damp. Simply wet it with water & WRING IT OUT WELL. If you’re getting moisture that stays on your surfaces, you have too much moisture in your cloth."

I have a wand type tool that works for me. But what is really helpful is taking the top off!

I use a similar tool AND the Invisible Glass window cleaner spray too. I do use it a little differently though. I use it covered w/ a thick terry cloth towel. I first spray and then wipe it off w/ the tool and towel. I then move the towel to a dry area and rub it again. I do maybe 1/3 of the windshield at a time, being right handed I do the right side and center from the passenger seat. Then I move to the driver seat for that side of the W/S.

I just ordered one too along with a 22 oz bottle of Invisible Glass. The back window on my wife's '21 Camry SE has been impossible to clean.
Thanks @RonC7 ..

Over the years I've tried several different liquids, cloths, and wands. IMO the best thing to use is a damp shammy. Obviously its no help on the reach but it easily removes the haze.

^^^^^
I use the same Invisible Glass tool and the GM Glass Cleaner, but wrap a clean terrycloth wash cloth over the yellow pad instead of using the more expensive yellow stuff.

Mix tap water with some Dawn (blue) in a small container and dip any cloth in to get it wet / damp and wipe all over windshield. Then squeegee the water off. Always gets rid of the haze on the windshield. Use a microfiber cloth to wipe down the edges if required.

I use the Invisible Glass tool as well. Put a short nap microfiber towel on the tool, directly spray the towel with an alcohol/water mixture and use it on the inside of the windshield. Flip the towel on the tool to a dry section of the towel and buff thoroughly. Then repeat the same process with P&S BeadMaker. The buffing is the most important part.
