How Do I Get My New Screen Clean?

[Podzak]

Aye, I know it's daft but I've recently had a new windscreen fitted and I can't get the inside clean.

I've tried household glass/window cleaner, car screen wipes, a microfiber gadget on a stick that makes good contact with the glass but "no".

The inside still seems to have some kind of smearing on it.

I've sprayed, wiped, rubbed and polished and I certainly know how to clean stuff cos I've been in the army y'know! TWICE !!!

Does Autoglass use some kind of 2nd rate "oily" glass that can't be cleaned?

I've used Rain-X, Astonish and Good Year Anti Smear "ha!" Screen wipes.

All to no avail.

Help

Go old school - white vinegar and clean with newspaper. If you have a steam cleaner, that's also an option.

If you're using Rain-X style products on the inside, that's the root of your problem...

Ty but this was rain X glass cleaner, not the rain repellant.

I'll see if my neighbour has some.

Don't want to buy a whole bottle, just for one job.

AutoGlym Car Glass Polish.... I use it and it dries like normal polish then you buff it off... so absorbs oily stuff..
