My windows are a right state inside and urgently need cleaning properly. Ive tried wiping them down and made matters 10x worse.

What does anyone recommend for interior glass cleaning? Particularly something that can be used on the inside of the rear window and wont affect the heated screen.

Of course the least smear to effort ratio is important!

I absolutley swear by Auto Glym Car Glass Cleaner.
It goes on just the same as the Bodywork Polish and dusts off very easily with no smear.
You will be very surprised at the colour of the cloth when you've finished

Thumbs up

Agree with the above, but it does produce dust which you may have to hoover out afterwards:
Then KEEP it clean with Autoglym glass cleaner in a trigger spray bottle.

I always use my chamois after cleaning my car, keeps the glass sparkling. Will need a bit of elbow grease the first time you do this.

Vinager and newspaper - works a treat (and cheap as chips)(tastes good on chips as well )

Don't know how it works - but it has to be black & white newspaper - coloured stuff doesn't work.
Roll it into a ball, splash a bit of vinager on the screen and rub.
Gets rid of all the grease in the screen and stops your wipers smearing / juddering.

Cool

can vouch for the newpaper/vinegar combo.. dunno how it works but it does.. and cheaply too!!

AG glass cleaner is a bugger coz of the "dust" it creates..

Zymol glass cleaner is ok too..

I find a bit of "Rain Wizard" afterwards keeps em looking sharp and clear

Washing up liquid and water....maybe a razor blade aswell for getting stubborn deposites off. Its what the pros use to get the windows COMPLETELY clean before doing tints.
