blythmrk Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 The best result I get is to first get the glass clean with hot water with a small amount of detergent then rinse with clean water and dry with a chamois leather. Only then I use glass cleaner (nil glass) with clean cotton cloth breathing on it and buffing any marks out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blythmrk Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Sorry i should of said for the inside Still the same just use a small amount of water I find if I just use glass cleaner you are left with marks unless you clean them a few times turning the cloth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I always find microfibre cloths drag on the glass so I use small waffle weave towels ,work fine , and see so many struggle to get the awkward bit low down so I wrap it around my hand and use the back so that's palm down ,get into the corners then with my fingers , product any blue liquid cleaner ,think the last lot I used was autoglym fast glass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Sounds good Yes i think so, i don't doubt there's better out there but for the price, ease of use and results it ticks all the boxes for me I bought one of these long reach tools as well, my mother has cut up the 80cm x 60cm waffle weave cloth and made me two pieces to fit on it and 3 smaller cloths, all the edges sewn up on her vintage Singer sewing machine Edited October 8, 2019 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
