Glass cleaning. Yawn.

[mk2 mike]

Apologise for the boring question but what glass cleaner do you guys recommend? I've tried most, spray types, polish types etc but my glass always looks a shambles. Looking at the cf show most glass looked gleaming.

 

Any recommendations?

I use mr muscle very good

Mr Muscle or Ajax glass cleaner. Both very good. Always use paper towels though (blue roll is good)

 

If you can, go to a double glazing or plastic trim suppliers as the trade glass cleaner is great, but don't let it sit on your paint as it has a very mild acid which can mark the finish. This applies to most types of glass cleaner.

Thanks chaps. Phil I do use blue paper but the cleaners I've used tend to leave marks, or a film on the glass. The autoglym fast glass stuff I have at the moment doesn't seem to shift bugs etc off the glass.

 

Ill try the muscle stuff

Normal liquid like Mr Muscle and the others are a mixture of water, acetic acid, a few cleaning chemicals and most importantly a little spirit which evaporates and leaves your windows smear free

I seem to remember cleaning my windows once, only ever use normal cheapie window cleaner.

 

I used screwed up pages of The Sun* and they came up lovely .

 

My other top tip is to wipe side-to-side on the outside and up-down of the inside. That way you know instantly which side any smears you do get are on

Meguiars Perfect Clarity Glass cleaner, £8 a bottle, so I suppose, not very cheap

But it works perfect.......I hate doing glass, but this stuff, just apply with one microfibre and buff off with another

I use Tesco glass cleaner and as said above, paper towels and loads of elbow power!!

£7 to pay the polish guys at car wash

[dacar]

I wouldn't let "WIFE" anywhere near my OSF.

Likewise the polski wash!

Don't laugh but instead of 'costly' paper towels - use newspaper - it works brilliantly!
