What are you using to clean the foggy film off the inside of the windshield?

There has to be something better than Windex, it just smears the film around. This is especially a problem after the truck has been in the sun for a week or so. So what are you using?

Another vote for Invisible Glass. It’s the best! Our local Home Depot and Walmart both carry it.

If you have even a slight weeping in your heater core antifreeze will leave a film from the defroster that is very hard to get clean. Changing towels a few times has been what I've found takes it off best. Windex, etc all work but not off the first set of towels.

That's the best glass cleaner I've ever used.

Windex has ammonia in it. Should not use near vinyl. I assume your dash has some. Stoner has no ammonia and was designed for auto glass.

Clean Glass

Whatever cleaner you use, Clean the windows twice.
Clean once and throw away the paper towels you were using, or the rags.
Spray again and use clean towels.

This microfiber cloth works wonders. Wet (don’t ring out) one cloth to clean the window, use the dry cloth to wipe off. Leaves no streaks. We now use the on all windows home and coach. No alcohol or chemicals.

It's the best we've found. Have used it successfully for years.
