To clean car windows effectively, follow these steps:
- Use a clean microfiber cloth folded into sections. Spray glass cleaner onto one side of the cloth (not directly on the glass) to avoid excess moisture in corners.
- Wipe the window in a methodical pattern, such as the "box method" starting from edges to the center, or wipe in up-down then right-left motions.
- For the inside windows, avoid spraying cleaner directly; use rubbing alcohol on a microfiber cloth first to cut grease.
- Use a fresh, dry part of the cloth to buff the glass for a streak-free finish.
- Clean the edges of the windows by rolling down the window slightly to access top edges.
- If the windows are very dirty, use a clay mitt or polishing compound for a deep clean before wiping with glass cleaner.
- Clean windows preferably when the car is parked in shade or during cooler times to avoid streaks caused by the cleaning solution drying too fast in the sun.
These steps ensure a clear, streak-free finish on both the interior and exterior of car windows and windshields safely and effectively.
