Welcome to ZDriver!

What are you using to clean the windshield?

I'd start by using a diff cleaner (like an actual Auto Class cleaner). Or just use water. Always use clean towels. Use one to wet the surface, one to dry the surface. If you let it air dry, it will streak & leave residue.

Do you clean your interior with that shiny ****?

Some of those products create foggy film on the inside of your windows.

Wanna know a neat trick? Take regular black and white news paper and spray your window down with water and use the newspaper to wipe it off. And it works no joke lol

I second that, I use news paper also and make sure you use water...any other solution will leak the ink of the news paper and you know what will happen.
