Can't agree with above. Most all off the shelf window cleaners leave streaks. The best one I have tried is the Adam's Window cleaner, with the aerosol best. What works the very best is water with the Norwex window cleaning cloth. I have been using Norwex for years now and best streak free cleaning I have found, again with just water. For water spots, clay barring windows works excellent and doesn't have abrasives.

Yeah, but have you tried that one? I've used others too but now use Invisible Glass (and the extended reach tool) exclusively, and it works great!

yes I have tried this more than once...not much better than Windex. The best of the bottled window cleaners I have tried is the Adam's. The best over years I have used is the Norwex cloth which only requires water. Absolutely the cleanest, streak free windows. Super simple, super easy, but the cloths are not cheap. Around $30 but worth it. Been using for years.

I learned years from one of my customers O'Cedar Vinig that most all off the shelf window cleaners are 75% water you are buying. The other ingredients are simple off the shelf items.

Years ago I was watching a pro window washer working as fast as he could not leaving a streak of any kind. He wasn't using bottled cleaner or newspapers, etc, etc. I asked him what was in his 5 gal bucket. He told me 1 cup of vinegar, a squirt of Dawn and water. Layed the mixture on the windows, squegeed off, clear as can be. I have now used that method on my home for 30 years. 45 min job, streak free....looks as though window is open. That mixture in fact, in a spray bottle works better than any store bought cleaner I have tried.

For cars though, still prefer Norwex. I can carry the cloth anywhere, use any water around and clean, even in sun streak free.

YMMV, as usual.

Castle glass cleaner if you can find it. Works great on indoor mirrors/glass no streaks

you never used the above products, they dont leave streaks, even on tint. Dont use paper towels, and you dont need alot of cleaner either, just a light spray. If you choose not to use those products , 50/50 vinegar with distilled water..
