Hey everybody.
I have a question.
I was wondering what you all use to clean your glass (not the product, to actually apply and wipe it off). Traditionally I have used paper towels, but I keep hearing about Newspaper. Is this true? Is it really that much better than a paper towel? Wouldn't it leave newsprint?
You get the picture, I want to learn how to use newspaper (if I have been hearing this info correctly) or another method.

Newspaper is better than paper towels, as it is lint free and doesn't leave streaks. Just tear up a newspaper into sheets, and use it like you would a towel (spray whatever cleaner on first, then wipe off).
I didn't like always having to wash my hands after doing that...your hands will turn black from the ink on the newspaper...so I went on the hunt to find something else.
So far, I've found a good microfiber cloth to work wonders. Got mine from Proper Auto Care (www.properautocare.com).

a little vinegar mixed with water works great! coke or pepsi really cleans the outside nicely, but you have to wash the car after. Windex works good also. I find that ordinary glass cleaner leaves a film.
The 1 thing that I will never do is clean my glass at a service station,with one of those squeegee's;
for some reason it leaves an oily film on your window, that is killer to get off!
just my 02 worth!

Oddly enough, the ink doesn't get on the glass. I never had that happen to me when I used newspaper. It just got all over my hands, and that was bad enough.

Stoner's Invisible Glass?
Are these the after-effects of using a Stoner's product?
... I always thought people saw different colors, and got hungry... but invisible glass? wow!
