  • I am sorry if this has been covered before.
    Is there a cheap way to clean glass? We seem to spend alot on glass cleaning products as we have a glass table and lots of windows, and to be honest I am not that impressed with anything I try, I always seem to end up with smears (especially on the table.).

    TIA

    I also use white vinegar and newspaper. No streaks! Or you can just use water then newspaper and still works ok. Or sometimes on my mirrors in bathroom, I wet the edge of a towel wipe over, then use the dry part of towel to dry it, works fine and quick n easy.
