i use some foam window cleaner, i cant recall the name. but i use that with paper towels and it never leaves streaks. the glass cleaner is a black can and a yellow top, i dont recall the name. but it works great.

El Cheapo window cleaner and a rag, I've never had a problem with streaks. Just make sure not to use too much...

sometimes Ill use wax on my glass after the invisible glass, just a little... that usually gets rid of any left over streaks and it makes it easier to clean up bugs/bird **** in the future.

heres a secret that i learned. for the outside anything will get the windows clean without streaks. but for the inside where it's harder to clean because of the mositure that we exhale, i found out the best way to clean is to do it in two steps:

1) first clean the window with either glass cleaner or just a wet rag and water.

2) while it is still moist, use a clean towel with some abrasion to it, like a lower quality bath towel and wipe it dry. you have to use a bit of force and wipe until the window is completely dry. the towel is the key in getting the oil and streaks removed.

Use Hot water and this works great. I smoke in my car and the windows get real nasty inside and this always does the trick.

the GM goodwrench glass cleaner is effing amazing. thats what we used at BMW when i worked there.

clean it like you normally would, and then take a dry rag and clean it again. we use diapers, they work very.
