HELp - Cleaning Auto glass

Oct 15, 2006 3 Replies

I have a 1994 Acura Integra. This car takes about a mile (or 2) of driving before the heat starts working. In the in winter months, the ice that forms on the wind shield takes a while to melt away (about 4 miles of driving). I could wait in the car about 15 minutes before the hot air clears up the wind shield. I have cleaned all the glass (wind sheild, car windows and rear wind sheild) with Windex. Windex does leave some cloudy streaks. Is there any material that I can use to clean up the wind shield (without the streaks) and prevent the long wait during a frosty morning?



Thank you in advance for any help.

Well, is it inside streaking? If so, ammonia will do better job of cutting grease, smoke tar, vinyl fumes than Windex. If outside, add Rain-X to reservoir after cleaning.

Course, it could be as simple as needing to go over the glass several times to get all the junk off the glass.

Amazing how glass gets dirty in a car at times, huh?

Use Stoner Invisible Glass to clean the glass inside and outside. Available at most auto supply stores and chain stores that have automotive departments (Target, Wal-Mart, etc)

There also de-icer sprays available that are made for exactly what you indicate. Look in the same places as mentioned above.
