Windscreen (interior) clean

    I've tried this many times but still can't get it right.

    What are the best products/techniques to clean the windscreen interior without any haze, streaks, holograms?

    The best glass cleaner I've ever used is Gtechniq G6. This along with a dedicated glass cloth is ideal.

    - Wear nitrile gloves to remove the chances of oils from your hands getting onto the glass and to protect your skin from the glass cleaner

    - Spray the windscreen with G6 and leave for 1 minute (out of direct sunlight)

    - Spray G6 onto a clean, never before used foam applicator pad

    - Work the product into the windscreen making sure to reach into the corners and along the sides of the interior glass

    - Using a Gtechniq MF5 Glass cloth remove the product and use a second one to buff the glass afterwards

    - When finished, use a normal MF cloth to remove overspray from the top of the dash

    Depending on how dirty the windscreen is this may need a second go but will only need 1 go for future cleaning.

    I used use any glass cleaner and follow up with a thin coat of Autoglym glass polish. However, the combination of G6 and the MF5 cloths removed the necessity of using a glass polish as it leaves a perfectly clean and 100% streak-free finish. Normal microfibre cloths have deep ish pile but the glass cloths are smooth therefore there is no streaking.

    Use the blower to defog the windscreen with A/C on. Don't use the back of your hand or a normal cloth. The MF5 can be used but it's just easier to let the blower do the work.
