    Been using Meguiars NXT Glass Cleaner for 2 years now and generally happy with it, but I would like to try a new one. I've tried Stoners before and it would fog up my windows really bad. I want something with some good cleaning power that won't streak, won't leave residue behind and won't fog up my windows. I'm considering CG and Adams (is it the same as CG?).

    Lusso glass polish, I have tried everything and it is by far the best.

    8oz for $9.95 is way too pricey, IMO. :shrug:

    Hadn't thought about Surf City. What do you guys like about it?

    Try some Sprayway Luis! It's pretty economical. I've also heard that the ZEP glass cleaner is pretty good too. Let me know if you want to try the ZEP as I have a gallon of it and have yet to actually try it, LoL.

    Another vote for Surf City Clearly Better Glass Cleaner. This stuff works really well and is very cost effective.

    Surf City Garage is one of the very best glass cleaners out there...It does NOT streak, even when used in full sun, cleans crystal clear...I will try some Sprayway myself though...if JL likes it, I'll love it!!!

    also using a clean dedicated towel is just as improtant as your glass cleaner

    CorsaCloth – a glass specific micro fibre towel that cleans almost anything, leaving a streak-free, spot-free, dust-free and lint-free finish. This cloth will not scratch, however trapped grit or debris will cause scratches. This distinctive cloth cleans with plain water, it removes film, dirt, oil, grease, finger prints, dog nose prints, etc all without the use of chemicals, for severe out gassing or the removal of stubborn grime; spray the glass surface with a 1:10 solution distilled water /Isopropyl alcohol and wipe with a clean CorsaCloth and the result is a crystal clear finish.

    Rinse cloth thoroughly or wash prior to first use, always use cloth damp. Simply wet it with water & wring it out well. If you're getting water spots that stay on your surface; you have too much moisture in your cloth. Wash with liquid soap, but do not use fabric softeners, hand or machine wash cloths alone or with lint-free clothing. Bleaching is great for disinfecting the cloth. Fabric softeners coat the cloth which can cause streaking and can also keep the patented fibres from being able to pull the dirt from your surfaces. Allow to air dry, without any dryer sheets - CorsaCloth

    Lusso Glass Polish you don't use a lot and its probably the best stuff out there.

    I use sprayway on the exterior most times and Surf City on the interior.

    I have Stoners and Adam's too.

    That cloth sounds interesting and good for interior glass.
