Washing the Windows?

Hey guys, what would be the best stuff to use when washing the windows? and should I veer away from using the same stuff on the T-tops since they are slightly tinted?

I use SprayWay, blue and white can, works excellent. Sam, Costco, Kroger has it. Safe for tint and been using it for around 15 years on tint. No adverse affects

I use Invisible Glass and a CLEAN terrycloth towel. Works great. it comes in a black aerosol can with a yellow top. Advanced, Autozone, and Walmart carries it.

Just look for something that's safe for tint. I've used many different glass cleaners and there's not much difference between generic, windex, and some 8-dollar mcguires/armorall/rainx etc

Yes, you can buy them by the bundle. They look like rough wash-cloths.

If you do have tint, be sure that you are using Ammonia FREE glass cleaner(safe for tint.) Ammonia turns your tint purple.
