Question what to use when cleaning inside windows?

wells on front and rear windows i used windex to get all the damn finger prints off. well it got the prints off, but now all i see are streaks and it makes it a bitch to drive at night. so what do you guys use to clean your windows? or what do you recommend?

MiroFiber cloth and rubber gloves so you dont touch what you have just done.

i found that a good ol paper towl or newspapers with sprayway is the best. sprayway seems to be more gentle, and you dont have to be that fancy with the towel i dont think. its glass for heaven sakes.

I usually use 1 slightly damp and 1 dry micro fiber towel. I go over the glass first with the damp and then the dry. it works pretty good. And no nerve damage unless the hatch falls on you while doing the back glass.

newspaper is the best for cleaning glass! find a product without ammonia in it.

Unless the windows are heavily soiled I always use a microfiber drenched in Meguiars quick detail spray then another dry microfiber to get rid of everything.

Windex and those types of cleaners blow. They cant be used in direct sun and any kind of extreme heat/cold makes them streak and haze. I hate doing windows but my method makes it easy, quick and perfect.
