dirty windshield

I seem to be getting some kind of film build up on the inside of my windshield. Its not from smoking or the cleaner im using. Could thear be somthing leaking from the ac unit? Thank guys.

strangely enough, since i moved back to south carolina, my cars windshield has been getting this wierd film on it too... and then dust sticks to it and makes the windshield dirty in a matter of 2 or 3 days... im used to only having to clean the inside of it every 2 weeks....


i have no idea whats causing it, but post if you know, and if i find out, i'll let ya know..

Do you use invisible glass to clean the inside with? If so, that is what causes it.
