Glass Guru's
I do pretty well at getting the paint, tires, wheels, and even the interior looking nice. But, the glass kick my butt!
Glass should be invisible and I end up with streaks. Some glass cleaners seem to work better than others, and I can't stand these micro fiber towels, I do better with black and white print news paper.
Yesterday I cleaned my wife's 08 Escape, our son's 2014 Focus ST, and my 2013 F150. Today I'm wanting to do the glass, and get a couple layers of RainX on the glass.

Haven't moved yet. I'm picking a 26' box truck May 4th and start loading. We'll get on the road as early as possibly Friday, May 5th. I'm hoping by early afternoon. And would love to make it to Memphis Tn that day. That would give us a 6 hour drive the next day. But I think that's going to be too much of a drive after loading a truck for o2 days.

We'll sure be glad when it's over.
And thanks for the good luck, we'll take it.

Mothers chrome polish is safe for glass. I use it on all my exterior glass, cleans great and no smears. It last a long time also.

Old school newsprint always worked for me.
For cleaning the glass at home "Sprayway" brand ammonia free glass cleaner from. . . Wally World
[QUOTE=2jhanna;17101678]After I wash and towel dry, I use the cheap blue windshield washer fluid in a spary bottle. I don't think it streaks as bad as windex."
Yeah, that spray bottle and a roll of cheapo blue paper towels for road trips because you never know what those wash tanks at the gas station will have in them.

We've hired a company to transport Ka'Bluey (my 79) back to Missouri, and just waiting to hear about a pick up date.
Yup, it's almost 1000 miles, but we're taking our time, but it's still 2 long day's of driving and we can't wait to be back home.
Thanks
