Nothing grinds my gears like dirty windows and mirrors. Best thing yet is windex and newspaper. Most glass wipes are disappointing. What do you like to use?

I’ve often wondered who wasted money, in this era, on a newspaper. Now I know people just pay for it to clean glass

The wipers. When you scrap frost in the morning that takes a lot off too.

We usually use Bounty Paper Towels and Windex to clean glass. 91% Isopropyl Alcohol works well on glass too.

I use alcohol on my hands and any wounds several times a day.

For my eyeglasses I use White Board cleaner, otherwise Windex and a paper towel

I started using windex and those micro fiber towels. Never tried newspaper but it works much better than papertowels.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

One of the problems with getting glass clean without streaking is that most paper towels have soap in them as a surfactant. It makes Bounty "The quicker picker upper" by reducing surface tension, but streaks windows when cleaning them. Cheap paper towels and newspaper don't have the surfactant (soap) in them and work better to clean glass, especially your windshield.
