I just read the current glass cleaner / window tint post and it scared me...never knew that caution should be excercised (only have had this car a short time. Is Stoner Invisible Glass OK I hope? IF not a suggestion for a decent cleaner please.



Also, what will take out water spots on a windshield please?



I used to use a non amonia glass cleaner to gently wipe or dust a dashboard and associated plastics but on current cars it tends to turn stuff cloudy or milky for a few monments (if left standing on the plastic) for a few seconds)...reeeaaal scary. I could and will use 303 on the vinyl surfaces but what about the interior hard black plastic trim...any suggestions please???



Thanks,



Nic
 
I just use the Water/Woolite solution on the plastic followed a couple times a year by 303 .. Stoners os ok on tinted windows.

I use Stoner's IG and EO 20/20 with no problem on tinted windows. Of course, that may depend on what tint film you use as well but so far, I've had good results with both of the above.



As far as water spots, if you're talking about what I *think* you're talking about (i.e. light etching in the glass), neither IG or 20/20 will remove that. When I've encountered water spots on customer's cars, I've had to use an abrasive polish (like Z-12) to get them out.
 
~One mans opinion / observations~



As stated Invisible glass is ‘safe’ on plastic window film.

For water spots try a glass polish (Autoglym Glass Polish) and #0000 synthetic steel wool (the 0’s are important #0 would be as abrasive as a Brillo pad)



~Hope this helps~

Tinted windows meaning both the aftermarket adhesed tinted film as well as color dyed ( minivans and SUVs for example) ?



I take it most window cleaners we would use on cars would do just fine on the later: factory tinted windows.
