Default Window Washing Trick......

If you are like me, washing the windows inside your Vette (or any other car for that matter) is the biggest pain in the butt of the whole cleaning process. There is always that damn film that builds up on the inside of the windows that you do not notice until 12am at night when you are driving home from a party and the oncoming car headlight about blind you because of the film build up on the windows. You tell yourself at that late hour, "damn, I really need to clean the windows". You go home go to bed, wake up the next morning and forget all about the promise you made to yourself about the window cleaning (until the next night drive).

Anyway, I had a customer of mine purchase an exhaust system and he told me about this new Myra Fiber cloth that makes cleaning windows a breeze. Simply slightly dampen it, and wipe....streak free, crystal clear window with no sprays or streaks. Oh, and it lasts forever and is washable. Assuming it was probably a gimmick, I figured I would give it a try....

All I can say is WOW...this thing REALLY does works!!! It wipes your windows perfectly clean. Heck it even wiped off the window sticker glue (my new 09 Z06 that I am so proud of )without any effort.

Guy's, this is not a Gimmick...You are missing the boat if you do not use this handy little towel to clean your windows. It works as advertised, if not better. No more glass cleaner over spray on my dash, ever!!!

I promise you, this will be the best $6 bucks you EVER spent.

They are so good, I immediately purchased a 100 of them, and have then ready to ship out. Order below

The Ultimate Cloth

Order above

Trust me on this one........Just order the darn thing !!!! you will want to personally call and thank me after using it!

Another option that completely amazed me after 50 years streaked windshields. I met a detailer who told me her secret was Invisible Glass. I was somewhat skeptical but not expensive so I tried it and WOW ! Finally a product that wows me !

The ultimate cloth works. I've had one for years and just wrap over my Reach Clean tool for the hard to reach glass. After using I rinse it well, roll it up and slide it back in the plastic sleeve it came in. It's a little stiff when dry so don't fold it IMO.

Thanks for the heads up. Doing windows has always been a PIA.

I clicked "Pack of 5 for $19" but when I went to check out it was $25. Is there a special coupon code for the 5 for $19?

I bet using distilled water would be even better than tap water with this cloth.

I have some of these cloths and they work ok. What I have found that works better is to use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on the inside of the glass to remove that film that builds up. Once I'm done with that, then use the glass cleaner of your choice with a microfiber towel designed for glass and you'll have a nice clean inside windshield.

If you have never tried news paper you need to. You can use whatever glass cleaner you like. I like Invisible glass the best.

Did I mention news paper comes free in the mail? Grocery store adds people.

Does the Mr. Clean Eraser affect any coating on the inside of the glass - like what is used for a HUD?

No effect, have used them on my 2013 Camaro SS 1LE with HUD and did not do anything, used on my 2017 ZL1 with HUD and no effect.

I picked up a Chemical Guys Waffle Weave towel the other day at Ollies discount fir $3.98. I had read that waffle weaves work well. The first time I used it I was amazed. Worked better than anything I have tried in my pursuit for the cleanest window.
