With all of this technology, I still have not found anything better than glass cleaner and newspaper to wipe, even the so called streak free sprays still leave a streak if I don’t use with newspaper, what do you use to get a streak free clean on your glass?

I still prefer newspaper. Preferably less then two days old and it has to be black and white. Microfibers work well also, but they cannot remove the grime as effectively as a newspaper IMHO. They are better for a quick wipe down of the windows that are not too dirty.

What about Griots on tinted windows? I like microfiber better than newsprint too... less mess and better absorbency.

Eagle One 20/20 is the best glass cleaner I've found. It is inexpensive, cleans well and doesn't leave streaks. Works well with cotton or MF.

to remove the grime try a product called "bartenders friend" is a very very mild abbrasive that cleans alllll the **** off your windows but its in powder form so you cant use it inside for inside try a mixture of alchohol and vinegar
