I have been using Adam’s Polishes glass cleaner for years and it does a great job getting the windows clean.

I don’t think it makes much difference of which product you use. I always use an alcohol based as I usually have tinted windows. The trick I found is wipe the window with a warm damp cloth before then use the window cleaner. No streaking on the first pass. I then use the damp cloth to wipe up any spray.

I don't even use distilled water just 50/50 tap water & isopropyl alcohol.

I remember it and it worked well. But it usually took a good wipe off because it left a cake-y type residue unless put on very thinly. Good stuff tho!!!!

Thank you!!!!!!! It's been driving me crazy that whenever I just clean the glass, I get streaks Never occurred to me it was the paper towels. I only use(d) paper towels when just cleaning glass and not the whole car, so that explains why. I guess if I was smarter, I might have figured that out myself. I was blaming my glass cleaner, which I also only use when I don't wash the whole car with soap.
