Windsheld cleaning tool
 
Anyone have a windshield cleaning tool and like it? I was looking at a few online and I like the triangular ones. I think the bonnets wont work well though. It would be awesome if they had something like the floor swifter where you can just tuck in a paper towel and use it to clean then swap out another one to dry.

Anyhoo, any reviews and recommendations on a nice windshield cleaning tool?

I use the triangular one. Stoner glass cleaning tool. Works great. I bought 2, one to clean the inside front window and the second with the microfiber bonnets to dry the inside. Didn't want to have to change handles each time. Great for the back window. I'm a smoker and DO smoke in my Z so the windshield does get dirty. FYI, I have an ashtray and DO NOT throw butts out the window.

.99 cent spatula with grippy side of velcro running along the edge.

On the Z I just do it by hand. I have the triangular tool but dont use it on this car.

Dirty window? These are the steps Kenchan would take.
1. take car to Nissan
2.trade car for one with clean windshield.
3. drive new car home

:) Ken did I get the steps right? I'm still new and the 3 step method.

So here's my DIY:
step1: dont allow windows to get dirty
step2: done! :tup:

Damn I was just getting the hang of the 3 step method...and you go come up with a two step method.

I clean mine with diapers worn by the Greek God Zeus and the tears from baby seals. :D

Nah! I use the triangle thing too but I use those cheap and grabby microfiber towels instead of the bonnets. Those grabby towels do a good job of scrubbing the glass clean.

You guys think the plastic one is good enough or should I spring fir the metal one? The thing will be used on 3 cars regularly.
