    Smart-[aleck] answer: "the MFs that don`t lint". Because IME eventually they all do and MF lint on glass is the devil.

    I prefer the Griot`s PFMs for Glass, which only come in one (too small) size.

    When dealing with nasty stuff, I do the windows with cotton towels first and then switch to "the good stuff".

    Many thanks again for all of the info. Do you or most people use a special wash fluid to wash the MF

    You are welcome, Gary ! We are all very happy to help !!

    I have been using - only - Microfiber Wash Soap for around 20 years, and it has always kept all my microfibers very clean and happy..

    Here are examples of a couple of products that I have used during these years that have always worked great -- https://www.autopia-carcare.com/micr...l#.XC0Qy1WQH3g
    And this one -- https://www.autopia-carcare.com/cg-m...l#.XC0RQFWQH3g

    I also add some Distilled White Vinegar to the wash cycle and the rinse cycle occasionally, and that also helps keep my microfibers doing what they need to do properly...

    Poorboy`s World glass cleaner is all I use now. It`s the only product I repeatedly buy a gallon of. Hell, I can wipe down the windows with a old sock and still get clean, streak free results.

    Re: What`s the best spray window cleaner?

    I like Sprayway glass cleaner for most situations. It`s cheap, available everywhere, window tint friendly, and cleans really well without any streaking. When facing really nasty windows I`ve found the Windex glass cleaner with vinegar to be very effective.

    I`m sure some of the more automotive focused products work well, but OTC products which work well and can be found at virtually any store I go to have kept me from trying others.

    I’m going to try to the Nextzett because Meguiars glass cleaner for me is leaving behind streaks on household mirrors although I do like it for piano black appliance surfaces.

    Time for me to mix up another bottle of D120 to see what kind of results I’ll get. I use a variety of cleaners including 3D 50:1. That’s going to take decades to use up at that rate!

    Bill D- Hey, while we`re discussing the D120 (or more precisely, before I forget again ) ...how do I mix/dilute the D120 you sent me?

    IIRC—and that was years ago—I think I took yours from a bottle I already had mixed up so no need to dilute it. But I wouldn’t bet my life on it. If you are using a 24 or 32 oz bottle with dilution ratios on the side, just mix up a bottle at a 10 to 1 ratio Do try it on a small area first to be sure you don’t indeed have to mix it in a bottle

    Re: What`s the best spray window cleaner?

    Guys, have any of you tried Meguiar`s Perfect Clarity glass product. It`s pretty darn good. I bought two more bottles at AAP today for $10...they`re running a special right now, should you want to try something new.

    I`m still cranking away at my gallon of D120. Some of the guys really like the strong grape odor. I`m also finding much to like about the German products, but they`re $$$ compared to everything else.

    I guess that one is yet another to put on the to try list. Might be worth it before going with the Nextzett

    I’ve got a bottle of the Megs Perfect Clarity and it was pretty weak at cutting through grime and bug guts. I relegated it to bathroom duty. The Nextzett stuff is a good deal considering you can dilute it 3:1. Perfect Clarity is on par with D120 as far as cleaning ability. My cars get tree sap on the glass and I need something strong to cut it, Nextzett does it quick and is tint safe.

    If Nextzett can also finish off totally streak free at all angles, then it may very well be the ultimate glass cleaner.
