Cleaning the inside of a windscreen

Any method will be better than not doing it!
I use a creamy polish - the autoglym one from a few years back, I've still got some. It's a bit blue-coloured. Apply with MF cloth or paper towels, leave for a couple of mins whilst you do one of the side windows, buff it off and then use a rain-repellant on the exterior of the windows - I've got a turtle wax cheapo at the mo but it seems to work fine. It won't stop rain obv but it does make the wipers' job a bit easier.
Whatever you do - take massive amounts of care not to whack the rear view mirror off - go really gentle anywhere near that. It will cost £££
if you remove it by smashing it with your elbow!

Best technique I've seen and used:
Spray your window cleaning agent onto a clean microfibre cloth
Then lie along the drivers seat and onto the passenger seat to reach all the inside windscreen (if you're right handed - vice versa if left handed)
Then use another clean microfibre cloth to polish the window up.
The important thing is to use separate cloths for each part of the process and spray onto the cloth not the window.
Works for me. . .

I just use whatever domestic glass cleaner we have around. Spray onto cloth (so it doesn't go everywhere) as posted above and buff with a second cloth.

oke: discuss? :rofl:vinegar+water solution with bit of dishwasher liquid, wipe with microfiber towel clean. Vinegar is pretty damn good at giving you no streak, no smell type interior. proportion of vingerar to water is something you need to look up online based on vinegar strength you have (30% or 5%). If you make it too strong your eyes wont like it btw, ask me how I know.
