I've been able to use the cloths now.
They do work on glass. I can't speak as to how well they work on filthy glass. But on light dirt they do work.

I believe this product is good for someone to keep on-hand for a quick clean. But for steady use every day, many times a day, it's not for me. I do like how well it works on stainless steel.

Well the time came and a friend gave me a Corsa Cloth to try out. I agree, for tough grime you need something with a cleaner in it. They are great however, for all interior glass jobs. They work well with just water and take care of any interior smudges, fingerprints, or dog nose marks, etc.

I suppose 99% of the detailers in the world have it wrong.
(it's not about if it can be done, it's also about the time and effort it takes)

Water alone works just fine for cleaning glass if you have the right towels and technique.
I have not used a glass cleaner in years, exterior or interior. For those claiming that water alone will not clean then you had better check your glass cleaners water content because I would estimate that the majority of them are about 95% or more water....with a touch of alcohol and some type of surfactant which usually causes more streaks and smears than they remove or clear up.
One wet microfiber glass towel and one dry is all you need. As for "filthy" glass....who cleans filthy glass with just a towel and glass cleaner? Most people wash the glass while washing the car thus the glass should be fairly clean.
Water IS a solvent, it's natures solvent and will cut through a good deal of grime.

It’s been my experience that a good quality micro fibre towel and water will clean interior glass surfaces, but I’ve found that water alone will not remove severe out gassing or the removal of stubborn grime (introduced from outside via the vehicles a/c or heating system) I spray the glass surface with a 1:10 solution distilled water /Isopropyl alcohol and wipe with a clean CorsaCloth and the result is a crystal clear finish.
