    ​As long as it does not have any ammonia content you are pretty well safe.

    Yeah, no problem, to be sure buy a name brand automotive like Mequiars, Mothers, which are formulated for tint, etc. Stay away from those off brand and any household cleaners as they often have ammonia in them as well as a percentage of butyl`s.
