Cleaning the Inside Windows

This may seem odd but I am having problems cleanign the inside of my windows in both my Super Duty and Excursion. It is like the paper towel leaves behind a film which gets worse after 2 days. I am not sure if it is the paper towel, as I have tried a couple different ones or the glass cleaner.

Is there a good car glass only cleaner out there and or decent paper towel?
This is driving me nuts!!

You could revert to the tried and true, good old windex glass cleaner and newspaper. Just not the flyers.

I fyou have tinted windows, Windex is a No-No, just use some vinegar and water and newspaper. I personally like using Turtlewax glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth.

It should be noted that FACTORY tinted windows can be cleaned with Windex.

If you got your windows tinted somewhere else then, yes, Windex is a no-no.

2nd for the invisible glass, I believe it is made by Stoner? That and a microfiber cloth or two works great.

microfiber is the key to success

most cleaners will work to clean windows, but the residue is killer if you use anything that is paper to wipe with.
