    Throw out any Windex, worthless. Try Invisible Glass (sold at WalMart, Home Depot...) or another glass cleaner such as 3M or Zep. Best when used with a terry towel/cloth.

    You get the TS squeegee sponge. Soak the windshield both sides then sponge again. After that squeegee. But you can do that every hour in spring with bugs

    Get the soft scrub stuff from the dollar store. A little squirt on the sponge side of the squeegee, scrub it around. Seems to work good.
     
    tscottme Thanks this.
