Cleaning windscreen glass
Can anyone give me some advice about cleaning my windscreen glass ? I can't seem to get a clean screen inside. I am using Megs NXT Gen glass cleaner and a velour cloth but still get hazing plus I find the velour cloth does not wipe very smoothly over the glass. I spray the Megs on to the glass wipe over and then turn the cloth and wipe again. Advice needed please!

Autoglym Glass Cleaner works pretty well for me - I make do with an old hanky, soft sock or any old soft rag/bit of old tee shirt etc. Take your time and rub thoroughly doing small areas at a time - if you have not cleaned the insides for some weeks, you will be amazed at just how much grime comes off on the rag - which has baked on to the inside of windscreen.

I think Fast Glass is a spray version -I've used this also - not bad for a quick clean. The Autoglym can provide a more heavy duty solution if required but needs a lot more effort than a quick spray and wipe off method.

Zymol HD-Cleanse for us, but with regard to the original query, it sounds like your windscreen has a heavy build up of film on it, hence the smearing. Best bet is to do a wipe down with methylated spirits on a fresh microfibre towel, then use your NXT again and see if it's easier with no smearing. The only time I have seen NXT smear is either when used in direct sun or when the glass is contaminated by a heavy film.

I use Auto Glym Glass polish that I apply using a megs aplicator pad and put on like a polish allowing the product to 'cure', then I simply wipe off with NO smearing. Plus watch it bead when it rains.

The best and cheapest way is wipe over the glass with clean water or a damp cloth if your doing the inside windows,once they look fairly clean wipe them over with a clean damp cloth or a folded kitchen towel and then dry the windows with a scrunched up newspaper,no smears,just nice clean windows,oh and no cost.
