Care of tints
Use ammonia-free products on tinted windows. Harsh chemicals eat away at the tint. you may use mild soap on soft clean towel or a soft sponge
Do not use rough paper towels or abrasive sponges, these can leave scratches on the tinted windows.
Clean and dry one window at a time so that the soap does not dry on the glass.
Wipe the window dry with top to downward motion in order to avoid water spots and streaking.

What are "tintS"? Its called window tint or film.
Almost all window cleaners are tint safe nowadays, anything with ammonia will be clearly marked as such. Anything sold for automotive use will definitely not have it.
Unless you have greasy nasty windows a microfiber cloth and water may work fine. I prefer a single pump of a misting cleaner like the Meguiers.
I disagree with top to bottom wipe only. I think they should be wiped top to bottom and left to right as well as around the perimeter. This is the best way to ensure nothing is missed.
