Default windex on wheels??

Hi all, I recently purchased the TSW Jarama in gloss black w/mirror cut lip. after a quick wash i had found an older aerosol cleaner work wonders for my windows and decided to use it for the wheels as well. after detailing the wheels i started wondering if i just ruined my brand new set. does anyone know if using any windex type product is harmful to the paint and/or polish of my wheels?

I've been using windex on my chrome rims for years.... I just use the regular one not the one with additives like amonia..

Yes, the blue Windex has ammonia all of the other colors/formulas are ammonia-free.
