Question best way to clean windows?

I spilled soda on my hatch window and it won't come off, does anybody know of a good product that really deep cleans window surfaces?

If hot soapy water doesn't work try some simple green or goo gone.

How can soda be hard to clean off? Did you let it dry there or something? I would think it would come off once you wash the car/windows.

If no cleaning products work, use a razor blade to get it off. Window tinters use it to get anything off glass.

I used windex on all the glass. If that doesn't work, I'd try the hot water + a razor blade.



...and for the love of pete, it's "Soda!"

Down here in the south it's Coke, even if it's not a coke, lol.

I suggest some CLR. Don't get that **** on your paint though!!
