Default Question: How to clean the inside of the windshield?

Without having been granted the abilities of an Orangutan, what technique do you guys use to clean the inside of the windshield, all the way the base? My arms just aren't long enough, and I'm too fat to wedge my torso between the dash and the windshield. So, I need some ideas here, as the windshield is starting to cloud up pretty bad. TIA, for any suggestions you can give.

I use Z6 and Microfiber to clean the inside of the windshield. I usually wedge the Microfiber between the dash & the glass and run it along the base of the windshield to clean the residue and it's worked fine for me. Don't know if that helps, but that's what I do.....

I use Stoner Glass Cleaner, to get the base of the windshield I wrap a small cotton towel around a plastic paint mixing stick ( you could also use a one foot ruler ).

This is one of the most annoying maintainence jobs for our cars, but it is a must. I also use a "stick" to get it all the way.

I have just looked 20 minutes for you but I can't find this tool.

It's a stick with a triangle at the end, a microfiber is wrapped around the end and you can seat back in your seat and clean the window.

I don't own one, but it looks like it would work well

Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate the link to the Eastwood site. I will order that cleaner along with the microfiber cloths next week. Thanks again.
