You can safely throw away all the fancy expensive stuff and do it just the way your grandad used to do it on his model-T.
A dab of simple distilled white vinegar on a clean cloth does magic.

Dilute with a bit of water for "normal" cleaning, say about 1 part vinegar and 3 parts water. Put that into a spray bottle.
Some put a drop or two of dish washing liquid in there as well but I find that is not needed.

I've had good success with Stoner Invisible Glass and a glass microfiber towel.

Agree with the Stoner glass cleaner. I spray it on wipe it down with a newspaper page, then dry it off with a micro fiber cloth works well. Getting into and out of the backseat is the trick on the inside.

I couldn't agree more- it's a pain in the rear to get rear window perfectly clean. I'm going to try stoner ( funny name) as well.

Actually 10 parts water to one part rubbing alcohol works perfectly and is what many detailers use. Leaves no streaks..

Does anybody know where I can rent a small person to fit in the back seat and clean the glass? I'm 6'5" and each time I try to wipe the rear windshield, my body communicates with me in a funny way that I am doing something wrong!
