The best--you have to trust me on this--is regular newspaper and Stoner's Invisible Glass. There have been many posts on this subject--do a search and you will see what I mean............

I'm having a streaking/residue problem right now with my windows. I'll have to break down and do the newspaper thing pretty soon.

I'm a stoner fan. Works great.

DO NOT USE NEWSPAPER. I did this for years until I scratched the @#!@$ out of my XB windshield. Soft glass.

I've switched to microfiber towels. Best deal for these is at Costco.

I use Zex 40 cold weather formula at work with paper towels. I was tired of the streaks that Windex put on all of my glass- it'd look all nice and clean and then you'd drive toward a low sun or something and BAM you're blind.

Hmm.. i just bought invisible glass today from walmart. The damn self-check out booth kept giving me trouble b/c it needed confirmation from a cashier. Appearantly, you need to be 18 to purchase it. I havent had the chance to use it, but i guess i'll use some newspaper to it.

Stoner Invisible Glass is the BEST - just like everyone has already said. Newspaper or microfiber is your choice - both work very well. The reason you've gotta be 18 is cuz of the idiots trying to huff it.

HMM--not that I look 18, but I have never seen anything come up when I buy it. I HAVE just seen the Invisible Glass in a pump spray bottle recently, but I have not tried it. I hopethe formula doesn't get changed because of idiots............

Has anyone tried the pump spray bottle version??
