These are def the best ever. Im talking the blue shop paper towels, the super absorbant ones, so great for cleaning glass. I have always had and issue with streaking and with these blue shop towels i dont have any issues. i def recomend this to everyone.

That is more likely a problem with your cleaner and or your technique.

I completely agree. Although the other day I did use a microfiber cloth, since there weren't any newspapers laying around and it did a pretty darn good job too.

I hate that invisible glass ****. I've got something (presumably Armour All) on my windshield and it didn't come off. I've tried a lot of stuff but it wont come off. It doesn't bother me so much as it bothers my passengers (it's on their side of the windshield). I'm about to just smash my windshield and call it a day.

I wasn't the one that used armour all, it was the PO. It's been on there since I got the car.

Murphy's Oil Soap will remove the crap (rain-x) or whatever

Also, use Cotton balls and Isopropyl on the blades of your windshield wiper. You will be quite surprised how much black tar / crap comes off. This is what causes the streaks, haze when using them.

Oh and I use Windex and Microfiber Towels biglaugh.gif
