I just thought it would be worth members discussing what products they use for cleaning their car windows inside and out along with any anti fogging/misting products now that the weather is starting to slowly get worse. Galss Cleaner - Autoglym Fast Glass. Easy to apply and work with but its best to use a proper cloth to make the application easier. Works a treat inside and out and does help clear the misty windows a bit quicker. Rain Repellant - Rain-X is an old favourite of mine. Very easy to work with and it does actually help the rain to drizzle off and makes it easier for the wipers to do a better job. Anti Fog - I have only every tried the Rain-X anti fog product. I actually didn't bother with repeat applications because I found that alwhtough the windows did clear quicker with the heaters when this product was applied, they also misted up that bit easier too for some strange reason. |

I find the glass cleaner from COSTCO is very effective, both inside and out, using the thicker type of kitchen roll..IMO.. Michael. |

Have only used Autoglym Fast Glass (spray) for both inside and out, and TBH it works fine for me too... Nice beading of rain drops on outside winscreen (wipers redundant at speed when initially done) and minimal misting inside. (Hygroscopic crystal box inside car to absorb moisture in the cabin..wet mats etc..also helps in winter and wet weather) Once a month regular clean tho.. |

Personally, I find that Tesco's Kitchen Roll and a dab of their Finest Washing-Up Liquid works wonders for me. |

I Find Mr Muscle Glass Cleaner is very good, but can leave smear marks if not wiped on the window properly!

if you have a spare £1 in your pocket you could do a lot worse than a bottle of Astonish anti fog glass cleaner...a trigger pack from their car care range.
Believe me it is top stuff.. made in Leeds. I have been to the factory to pick up things that they make for us.. they actually make for a lot of top brands that you would pay a lot more money for. Nick |
