I reveal the "BIGGEST SECRET" in the for getting Perfect Crystal Clear Windows which will change the way you think about Glass Cleaning Forever!
🎖️ My Top Tips for Getting Streak Free Glass
1. Move the Car in to the Shade whilst cleaning to keep the Glass Cool
2. Always carry plenty of Extra Cloths / Microfiber Towels
3. Always Clean out Synthetic Leathers after every use
My Thoughts on Glass Cleaning. Do I think you should ditch glass cleaning forever? NO, But What I'm saying is you don't always need it in most cases. Only Cars with severely contaminated glass should be given that extra hit of glass cleaner.
For Cleaning car windows in the direct I will always stand by this method as being one of the very best especially for the beginners out there who just want to learn.

  • I worked as a car valet for two main dealerships followed by several years self employed until I retired. I've used a variety of popular glass polishes with limited success, the main problem being dust...and streaks. I found the liquid household spray on types and kitchen roll an improvement, at least there's no dust. I bought a used 2012 Renault Megane from a local dealer 3 weeks ago, the windows had been cleaned...in a fashion, so I tried to improve them with the spray and paper towels, better but not good enough. Tried again last week, looked okay until the sun showed up the streaks. I watched your video, grabbed a bucket of clean water, a synthetic leather and microfibre cloth and got to work. Blimey mate, I've never made such a good job of cleaning glass in less than half the time. Brilliant, thanks for sharing. 🙂👍

  • Thank you. I used to have a mate who was a window cleaner and he always said- just cold water and a chamois leather. A tip for stickers is to put WD40 on them. It's less effective if the front is plastic or waterproof of course in which case you have to try and peel that layer off first, but it'll soak into paper and dissolve the glue behind really well. On the same subject, if you have kids who put them on their body- the tattoo sort which you can get in bubble gum for instance- then olive oil works really well and won't harm their skin.

  • A favourite cleaner for professional automotive glass replacement companies is " Nilglass" , combined with 10" 2 ply wiper rolls. Use of the wiper roll avoids cross contamination. If you struggle wiping the inside of the windscreen, open the door, stand outside the car and reach in to clean most of the interior. Cleaning in direct sunlight with glass cleaner, spray the cloth or roll, not the glass and apply immediately to the glass to get best result.

  • I have a 2023 Toyota Supre. The glass is difficult to get clean. So, I didn't use the synthetic leather but just a soaked towel. Then, I followed up with a dry towel. My windows have never looked better! I have been using microfiber clothes and they leave lint. However, they state there is no lint but there is. Now, the glass sparkles! Great video and no longer using window cleaner products. I did this technique in direct sunlight. No problem. Concering the windshile, I merely sit in the passenger seat for that side and then the driver's seat for that side.

  • Assuming the car is already washed, I use a squirt of my panel prep (25%IPA, 75% water) and a MF cloth. It's a quick and easy way to achieve a similar result and is great for cutting through that fog (I understand it's partly plastic ... uuurgh) that appears on the inside. It's not chemical free but it's easy and I threw my synthetic chamois away years ago, then regretted it when I first saw you show this method!

  • This works for most of my windows, but I.usually have to use a slight bit of cleaner on the inside wimdsheild and on the inside of my enginebay hatch of my NSX. However. I never used a shammy or fake leather cloth, just an absorbant towel and like you another clean towel at the end. Works great.

  • It really works, did this years ago ) 1 thing though, you will need a decent artificial leather. That yellow one as in the video is so so, better get one alcantara (suede) instead. When its dump, there is even no need to do a third final wipe.

  • I have found that many process and chemicals have been touted. The one thing they all have in common is physical force. The final step is always forceful final wiping with any dry material. I use any cleaner to get the chunks off then microfiber cloth to wear any residue off. Same goes for any house glass or mirrors. In the end you have to wear off the streaky film with a rag of some sort.

  • I’ve been happy using 70% IPA with a microfiber cloth the last several years; I’ve found it great for getting the filmy residue off the inside of the glass. It takes off a large amount of the microscopic particles on the glass that moisture & humidity stick to, so the windows don’t fog up nearly as much. However I do like that “synthetic leather” method; imma go find mine somewhere 😅

  • Really interesting video Dave. I've been using Stoner InvisibleGlass for years,. One other secret I found is to use a Waffle Weave MF Towel. Clean and streak-free every time. I use this on the inside of the windows (include home windows), and the Rain-repellant version on the outside (give me nice water beading). Going to try your method though as this seems more cost effect, and it it works a well, then why not save some money :)

I have used a few glass cleaners like gliptone which is good and auto smart bulk glass cleaner then tried chemical guys total interior which says it’s ideal for interior glass, infontainment screens etc but still left smears. However I’m wondering if this is caused by using old / contaminated cloths?. Could blue paper towel be used on glass with the same effect?
