    stoner glass cleaner with rain repellant. BEST STUFF EVER! Cleans the windows super easy to get a streak free cleaning, plus the water repellent is amazing, it makes the water bead up on all of your windows so you can see out of them much much better. It also makes them resist fogging up.

    outside windows, i use rain x w/ a microfiber cloth (dampened with rain x) and a completely dry microfiber cloth to take care of the streeks. inside, i use windx w/ the same dampened cloth, then use the completely dry cloth to take care of any left over streeks. i know, it seems like alot of work, but you make it what it is!
