Hot water and vinegar and wipe with a cloth or sponge. Rub dry with a scrunshed up newspaper. Voila! Crystel clear windows.

So your saying mix hot water and vinegar onto a cloth wipe the screen and rub dry with newspaper?

Will the vinegar not leave a lingering smell inside my car?

A wee bowl of water with a liberal (but not too much) sprinkling of vinegar. Then dip a cloth in. Your hands will smell of vinegar but you won't smell it in the car. Trust me...the vinegar cuts through the grease and the paper dries and shines.

I do the same for my house windows inside and out.....just like Granny used to do!

What car you got?

A Mercedes E220 CDi and Toyota Rav4. What does that matter for though? A window is a window....

Try it on a window in the house or a mirror first if you're not convinced...

vinegar and newspaper is very old skool, its worked perfectly well for donkeys years. I don't use that method personally as its too much effort, I use IPA and kitchen paper leaves the glass streak free. I don't expect everyone else is like me though and has several bottles hanging around at anyone time so the MSE way would be water, vinegar and newspaper.

I dont have vinegar at home so a squirt of inhouse window / mirror cleaner on a paper towel and good wipe does the trick for me.
