Eagle products own. &nbsp;Their tire shine is the best.

I like foaming aerosol cleaners. &nbsp;The ones that come in cans like hair spray. &nbsp;That and some newspaper (black and white), and you get Beautiful streak free windows.

I own my own auto detailing shop as well as performance shop, and I have found that Sprayway glass cleaner and Glass-E spray cleaners work the best...just STAY AWAY from ammonia-based cleaners, as they will KILL window tint! (for the uneducated) But, you can find both Sprayway and Glass-E at local parts stores REALLY cheap. I will say that foaming cleaners work the best (both above cleaners are foaming)...

Newspaper leaves the least streaks and doesn't leave any fuzz and shit like cotton does.

Yes, the ammonia cleaners (like Windex) will turn your tint purple and make it bubble. &nbsp;Use the good stuff from Eagle.

The guy that put the tint in my car said he washes windows with baby shampoo and water. &nbsp;(For tinted windows of course.) &nbsp;Thats what he recommended to me. &nbsp;Of course I use the foamy stuff on the inside of the windsheild, and some random tint safe glass cleaner for the other windows. &nbsp;Are any of the foaming cleaners tint safe?

I use Invisible Glass by Stoner.
I also use something called Bar Keepers Friend on the outside of the windows if they are really dirty. &nbsp;I found it at a bed and bath store. &nbsp;I heard about it on a car show. &nbsp;It is a powder made to clean & polish glass, metal, countertops, etc. &nbsp;I just put a little on a wet sponge and gently scrub the wet windows and then wash it off.
