Misty windscreen?
#1
Does anyone else suffer from that irritating misty haze on the inside of the windscreen? I don't just mean on cold mornings, it's particularly noticable in bright sunlight and I've never really noticed it on previous cars. Is there a fantastic cleaning product out there that I can use to get rid of it?

I had this problem from new. There seemed to be some kind of waxy substance on the inside and outside of the glass. Cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and then domestic glass cleaner. Problem has now gone away.

You will find that on newer cars this is caused,in part, by the plastics used in the interior.
As they "age" they give off various vapours/residues,which condense on the glass.The heater re-evaporates the moisture content but leaves behind the residue.
You get some haze from nicotine in a smokers car as well.Also your breath & that of your passengers has fats & greases in it that over a perod of time deposit on your glass.
Most can be shifted with cream type glass cleaner,or the liquid ones but with more effort.
