Default Window cleaning

I know this has probably been asked and answered, but bear with me. What do you use to clean the windscreen where the wiper blades don't get to? There always seems to be that uncleaned area even after cleaning. Thanks

Straight windex wiped/rubbed off with newspaper has worked for me thus far. If you think it's mineral deposits, etc then check some of the other threads. Cheers :cool:

I use a product called Glass Wax about every three months and this stuff is unbelievable as far as the clarity of the glass.

If you have Zaino you do not need Rain X or Glass Wax, Z-2 or Z-5 can be put on any glass surface for a Rain X effect.

Are you talking about cleaning or polishing?

If we are talking about cleaning... I use Stoners 'Invisible Glass'. Great stuff and doesn't leave smears.

Then once you've cleaned, apply zaino polish lock and polish. Works a treat. But be sure to apply in very thin coats... getting all the dry polish residue of can take a long time if you put too much on glass at once.

Stoner's Invisible Glass. I just received my order and tried it yesterday. All I can say is WOW! :cool:
Even where the wipers left there marks it looks like you could reach right through the glass! It's the best glass cleaner I have ever used.

Stoner's Invisible Glass?

Ya... I tried some of that. But the cops say it is illegal to smoke and drive at the same time. I guess thats why. :cheers:
