Default Cleaning front windshield

what do people use to clean the front windshield? I tried windex and soap water but both seem to leave streaks.

Stoner's Invisible Glass ftw. I use that for both the inside and outside. It's a good glass cleaner.

It's not just the cleaner you use... A lot of the results depend on the type of towel used to clean the glass. The more tightly woven the fibers the better.

yep stoner's invisible glass and a clean cobra microfiber ftw

Or you can be old school and use a newspaper... but careful not to use it on your interior glass or risk scratching your tint.

i feel sprayway glass cleaner is great. it smells better than stoners, probably made in the same factory though. 4 can bundle is really cheap at costco.

For the cheap use a spoonful of vinegar in about a litre of water. Use newspaper, no color pages.
