    You gotta mix the dawn with alcohol if you put in a spray bottle

    OK cool, thanks. Every time I've mixed it with water it seems to clog up the pump.

    DONT USE FUEL ISLAND SQUEEGE'S!!
    I use regular, cheap, window wash (Winter when needed)in a spray bottle, add about an ounce of dish soap (detergent) and a good dose of Clear Ammonia. You can get the Clear Ammonia at Walmart in the cleaning isle. Ammonia is HANDS DOWN the best glass cleaner. Spray it on the windshield, start the pumps, spray a little on YOUR squeegee, and it all comes off. Easy peasy. Screenshot_20230424-190430_Samsung Internet.jpg

    Twice a year I do a "super clean" on the semi and both cars windshields, and only use Rain-X rated to -20 in the washer bottle

    Before you buy a bottle of ammonia, shake it. If it foams up that means it contains water and water is what causes streaks on glass.

    So far Ace Hardware's store brand ammonia is the only stuff I've found that does not contain water.

    I use the walmart stuff and with my squeegee the windows are squeaky clean, takes road grime, bug guts everything off.
