How To Easily ● Clean The INSIDE of Your Windshield ( with zero streaks ! )

[@tjrich9349]

Hey bought the tool - did the windshield - saw the results - did a happy dance! Easy, most effective cleaning of the inside of a windshield in my 72 years on the planet.

[@dmolnar]

Chris, small tip, use a bath towel on the dash to catch drippings from the squeegee so your dash does not have spots

[@chrisnotap]

Yes good tip!

[@Michael-Makes-Stuff]

🤦🏻‍♂️ Why didn’t I think of that? Awesome tip - thank you! 👍🏼

[@d.n.1619]

Great tip 👍

[@meta5291]

I seriously thought that was THE TIP. And they should also sell a squeegee that has a drain to collect the drippings into a container in the handle.

[@piggypiggypig1746]

Preferably someone else's towel.

If you use the squeegee to clean the outside of the windshield too, go from top to bottom instead of side-to-side. That way, if you should happen to see any streaks, you’ll know right away if they are on the inside or out.

Pro tips for any inside (and outside) window cleaning : 1. - Make sure the squeegee rubber is in good condition. 2. - Wipe the cloth down the edge you start from,this stops any bits being dragged along. 3. - Ensure you wipe the blade AND the top corner of the squeegee rubber with a damp cloth after every pass. 4.- Allow a good margin of overlap on each pass to avoid water lines. 5. - Put a towell underneath to catch the drips.

[@paulmiller8886]

i noticed those drips, thanks

[@monikao.559]

This is like a miracle! Like many of you, I've tried a wide range of products to try and get that thick hazy grime off the inside of my windshield, to no avail. Driving at night was especially bothersome, as the lights from oncoming cars would cause a heavy glare effect, greatly distorting my ability to see the road in front of me. I park outside and the sun beats on that car. So, I came upon Chris Notap's video. Hmmm. It looked too easy, but I was willing to give it a try. OK, so I went onto Amazon and purchased the green & orange squeegee that Notap recommended. It arrived today. So, I got me a bucket, added 2" of water to it, did a circular swirl of Dawn dishwashing liquid into the water, and went to attack that grimy windshield. I rubbed the soapy water onto the windshield with great gusto. Then I went over it a second time. Sudsy droplets fell all over my dash. I did not care! I meant business! Then, I took that squeegee, and did just like Chris Notap in this video. Left to right with squeegee in hand, and after each swipe I wiped its edge with a clean dry cloth. It was an overcast drizzly day, so when I was done, I couldn't tell how effective my efforts were. But, after the sun went down, I purposefully got in my car and went for a drive. Well, I tell you -- I was absolutely amazed. It was unbelievable! No haze anywhere on that glass! Under the streetlights, my windshield was sparkling clear. There was zero glare blinding me from the headlights of oncoming cars! I tell you -- I feel like I'm on a natural high! When I got back, I said to myself, "I have to leave a comment on Notap's video!!" So, here it is! Yes! Yes! Yes!

[@chrisnotap]

That's fantastic!

[@CLoSC]

Yep, I agree. Having tried Mr . Clean eraser and failed (despite videos saying otherwise) this video confirmed that the BEST option is the squeegee. The new nugget was the use of dawn dish soap to cut the grime which behaves like grease. Both together successfully remove the streaks and glare from the inside of the windshield that has become the bane of my car maintenance existence. I concur that adding a large towel to the dashboard helps to catch some of the drip. Good work with this video.

[@MarkSmith-js2pu]

[@callummacleod8634]

Thanks Chris. I had a residential window cleaning business 30 years ago and still have an 8" squeegee from those days that I keep in the car and have ever since used on the inside windshield. Dishsoap in water, wet cloth, dry cloth. Easy. Never thought to make a video. Squeegee works well on foggy side mirrors and side windows too on wet winter days.

[@TheThinkersBible]

I just got that squeegee in the mail yesterday and cleaned the inside of my windshield. Put towels on the dashboard per the suggestions below from viewers. I used a green pad side of a wet sponge with some dishwashing liquid on it. I ended up having to use the towels to wipe up the small water lines left by the squeegee, but the inside of my windshield is clean now and it was easier to clean than it's ever been before. Thanks a million!

[@chrisnotap]

Fantastic!

[@nancyharman4795]

Years ago, a local postal worker was cleaning the plate glass windows at the PO with a bottle of carbonated water and told me I could use the same thing on the inside of my windshield. Well, I don't normally buy carbonated water, but I since being informed, I HAVE used sugar-free carbonated soft drinks and paper napkins to clean when the windshield looks obnoxious! Worked quite well, and I always had those items on hand. Still didn't solve the human anatomical aspect of the problem, but this new approach looks intriguing! I hope it'll work as well for me as it does for Chris... I never tried the sock-foot technique due to a bad knee! Thanks for a tremendously-entertaining tutorial! 😺💕🐾

[@redshift2omega]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I always dread 'that moment' when you realize it's necessary to clean the car's inside glass. You know, the inside surface gets that foggy-hazy patina that is worse at night with the glare of oncoming headlights. I've tried a few other methods shown in other YT videos but none have worked as advertised...very disappointing. There's always streaking and/or areas that just weren't clean afterward requiring re-do. But I saw this method of Chris's and thought it had promise, so I bought the little squeegee and tried it last week. It amazed me! Not only did it work, it was almost easy! (Almost) It's been a week now and I'm still amazed at how good a job it did, I don't remember ever getting such excellent results. I did my outside windows too and afterward it was like looking at a new car's windows in the dealer showroom...they were super clean, just like in the video. Try this method! Things I found that worked well: 1. The squeegee is perfect for car widows. As mentioned in the video, the frame doesn't extend to the ends of the squeegee, letting me get right up to the very edge of, well, everywhere without scratching anything. 2. I could use the squeegee upside down, as the blade works either way. Why is this important? My windshield has a significant slant putting the bottom, where it meets the dash, at arm's length. Always a problem for me. But by using the squeegee upside down I was able to easily squeegee upward from the bottom, up and and off to the side, for easy follow-up. 3. Mild water and dish detergent solution is an excellent cleaning solution, it very effectively cuts through the dirty film (you know what I mean). No special 'window cleaner' needed (think Windex). 4. Cleans the rear window with that bumpy inside defroster grid without fear of damaging the grid elements. The squeegee is soft silicone rubber which is not abrasive and doesn't induce any wear. 5. Much faster than the 'spray-and-wipe' system. No re-do needed. When you're done, you're done! Things that didn't work well: 1. It's a squeegee system. Where does the squeegee'd solution go? Gravity says "down", so it drips. I put a towel down on my slippery vinyl dash beforehand but fought trying to keep it in place. In the end I gave up and let the drips fall where they may. Drip clean up was easy though, so no harm, no foul. 2. There is no #2, the dripping issue was the only detractor for me. And honestly...so what?

It is tricky cleaning the windscreen. I have had trouble trying to get it clean. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@Melkor3001]

I use 2 microfiber cloths, 1 wet cloth to clean and 1 dry cloth to buff. Soak the wet cloth in slightly soapy warm water and wring out as much as you can before using it to wipe the windscreen. Then use the dry cloth to buff off. Little tip, fold the dry cloth in half then in half again. This gives you a more even buff and provides you with a dry side of the cloth when you flip it over. I've been a professional valeter for 10 years and have always used this method.

Hi Chris. Thanks for the glass cleaning tips and will try your method. The main problem I see with the inside windscreen glass is the "film" that builds up over time (not that long) from the car parked in the sun, etc. THIS is a problem to remove with standard glass cleaning as you did initially in this video. This "film" mainly becomes discernable at night (after attempting to clean) and is annoying to say the least. Thanks.

[@Trustbutverify2651]

A good answer to that that I have found is to use one of those "magic erasers" - works very well. I had the "film" problem too (older car) and someone recommended that to me.

[@motorgearhead]

Squeegees work like magic! I also have used a DIY window cleaner mix that is awesome! 1 cup 91% Isopropyl alcohol, 1 cup distilled water (if you have hard water), 1/4 cup white vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon Dawn. I have used this mix in a garden sprayer to clean outside windows of my house. I rinse with a pressure washer with a spray pattern. I then squeegee the windows but found they will dry almost streak free even if you let air dry. I also keep a 3 oz spray bottle of just Isopropyl & water (50/50) as a spray disinfectant in my car. I have found this also cleans glass very well and is my favorite for cleaning my sunglasses & cellphone screens. It does not streak if used with a clean micro fiber cloth.

Been breaking my back and scrubbing for 40 years and still had streaks. This method is easy with zero streaks. Used the recommended squeegee. The trick for me was wringing out the right amount from the washcloth. And use a piece of cardboard to catch the few drips that come off the squeegee: I found it easier to go from bottom to top and work my way across. That way it only drips near the end/top and I can catch those with the cardboard.

I don't envy you the traffic.

[@aprilmayhue]

Thank you so much! Very glad I found this video. I bought the same squeegee and followed the steps from Chris and it worked perfectly on the inside of my windshield. Thank you again

[@chrisnotap]

You're welcome!

[@DrClawizdead]

What a great tip! I have the hardest time cleaning the inside of my windshield, but this looks to be super easy.

[@chrisnotap]

Glad it was helpful!

[@timberskid]

Thanks Chris.. I use a tiny bit of isopropyl alcohol in my Dawn mixture for windows and mirrors. It works great.

[@michaelarcher6278]

Hi from the UK 🇬🇧 I have struggled for years cleaning inside my windscreen, your method is the best I have ever seen. Thank you 😊

[@chrisnotap]

Greeting from CANADA!!

[@DCOehm]

This works sooooo well! Thank you! I did get the small squeegee he uses. It was perfect.

[@chrisnotap]

Excellent!

[@sassafrasdinglemeyer4513]

I just tried this method, can’t thank you enough for posting this. Windshield looks fabulous!!!

[@wmciii6770]

Worked GREAT , 14 optima sxL windshield almost laid flat and clear as a bell. THANK YOU

[@BobCarroti]

So lucky that I found this, it really is a miricale. Needs much wider distribution of this wisdom. How will we every go back to the old ways after this great bit of enlightenment, and only 1.6 m people know about it.

[@bulldog3494]

I love this method. There are many ways to clean windows. The point is that you do not have to stand on your head or twist your back to get the job done. The most straightforward solution I have seen. Five minutes and the "JOB IS DONE!"

[@makelikeexile2188]

I was always using rags or other pieces of towels being in different positions walking back and fourth to the seats in my car and getting tired sometimes, I will definitely use your tip. Thanks Chris! Good video!

[@LV2UXO77]

I bought this tool at the Dollar Tree store, and it's excellent to clean car windows. I had one in my car and discovered cleaning windows with it years ago. It's a must to have. They also have longer handles I use to clean the shower doors with.

[@Dargonhuman]

My wife is a smoker and I'm constantly battling the smoke buildup inside the windshield so this little doohickey will be a major help.

[@dudley5533]

Best way yet........looks easy and best clear results ever seen. Great video.

[@Pyridox]

Thank you Chris. The squeegee method worked great. I used a small metal squeegee that I had on hand, using a mild solution of Dawn dish soap and a magic eraser. I did order the smaller squeegee that you recommended, because it would be more compact making it easier to use.

[@chrisnotap]

Excellent!

[@lawrencediener7976]

CAREFUL ! A Magic Eraser is indeed "magic" but it is essentially very close to Epoxy foam. It is probably much harder than the face protection film on the inside of your windshield ! I think windshields still have the protective layer on the inside as well as the layer laminated into the glass to keep the windshield together when it breaks.

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Great as always. For the outside, use steel wool to remove sap, bugs, water spots and stuff: it is softer than the glass and pretty much harder than any of the junk 'glued' on, and leaves the glass very smooth and will not damage it.

[@backyardsounds]

4-O steel wool Im guessing? What* about Brillo pads?

[@Michael-Makes-Stuff]

Chris Fix recommends using Magic Erasers

[@scarce911]

@@backyardsounds finest steel wool available ...0000...and gentle pressure

[@queenbunnyfoofoo6112]

Magic erasers work much better.

[@JamminClemmons]

@@queenbunnyfoofoo6112 Agriculture is destroying the planet. It is very frustrating how much miss information there is on this topic. Grazing can actually sequester far more carbon than forests at a much, much faster rate. If we grazed animals on a large enough scale, we could actually mitigate all human emissions. Growing plants can not do this. Plant agriculture uses massive amounts of fossil fuels and unlike grazing cattle, it doesn't mitigate its own emissions. The soil microbiome is killed with chemicals and that dead soil is lost rapidly, causing complete land infertility and desertification. Grazing animals is the fastest way to replenish these lands, bring the microbes back, give nutrients back, rehydrate, break up impaction, and build soil faster than any other process. It would take nature decades to build the amount of soil made in a couple of yrs of Grazing.

[@TheThinkersBible]

GREAT idea! I've tried Windex and all kinds of things - nothing really worked. I'll definitely try this - and the tip about doing it in the shade is very helpful, it's one of those 'obvious' things you never think of :) And the nuance about the different types of squeegees is genius, never knew there were squeegees made like that. Thank you!

[@andiiramii2775]

Thank you this works great. Ive been doing your method for my work truck but my personal truck i have tint on my windshield so i just use a tint safe cleaner that's the only difference and works great too

[@DrMerle-gw4wj]

Very useful video. I ordered the squeegee and expect to get it in a couple of days. Thanks for the info.

[@Kim-lg5sd]

This is the same technique my mother in law showed me for windows on our house. It works great! 👍🏻 👍🏻

[@Karincl7]

It s a pretty normal technique for cleaning windows. Tip use a splash of vinegar

[@linkinbreak]

I bought a squeegee for my windows in the spring/fall when the dew gets on the windows to quickly get the water off them. Never crossed my mind to use it on the inside of the vehicle. Going to clean them this weekend!

[@Deanriley]

One of my major pet peeves is a dirty window on the inside. Thanks for this clever tip.

[@lorib.8605]

Thank you! Just ordered 2 squegees! Can't wait to try it! Love the humor when using your sock feet to try to clean!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chrisnotap]

Yay! Thank you!

[@PossumLady8262]

When you were using your foot to reach…Put a big grin on my face! Very good system, trying it this weekend on my cars.

[@tomnekuda3818]

I have bad shoulders and that method helps quite a bit.

[@chrisnotap]

It really is quite easy and there is nothing more satisfying than squeegeeing a window!
