Instructions for cleaning the inside of your windshield

Washing the inside of your car windshield is crucial to preserve your unobstructed view of the road.

Materials needed:

  • Lint-free microfiber rags or spray bottle
  • Glass cleaner
  • Distilled white vinegar
  • Rubbing alcohol

Instructions for cleaning the inside of your windshield:

  1. Mix solution in a spray bottle of ONE of the following popular and effective options:
    • 50% rubbing alcohol, 50% water, and a capful of white vinegar
    • 70% water, 15% glass cleaner, and 15% alcohol
  2. Gather your materials then hop in your passenger seat for easier access to windshield glass.
  3. Use a clean, dry microfiber towel to wipe down the glass first.
  4. Next, use a different cloth and rubbing alcohol to degrease the glass. If you live near the coast, you can also clean the glass with vinegar to dissolve sea salt.
  5. Using a different side of the rag or a clean one, spray glass cleaner onto the rag (not the windshield) and clean the glass in circular motions. Use an auto-specific glass cleaner, avoiding ammonia-based cleaners, which can damage vinyl, leather, and tint.
  6. Swap out towels as soon as they get dirty.
  7. Use up-and-down wiping motions to finish off the glass, making sure windows are completely dry for a streak-free shine.
