My nana swears by this trick for cleaning the windshield and glass inside the car. It’s spotless! Here’s how it works.
The Nana‑Approved Car Glass Cleaning HackCleaning your car’s windshield and interior glass can be a real pain—streaks, smudges, and leftover residue make driving a hassle. Luckily, there’s a simple, grandmother‑tested method that leaves glass sparkling spotless with minimal effort.
What You Need1. A blue microfiber cloth (the one shown in the photo). Microfiber is key because it traps dirt and doesn’t leave lint.
2. A clear cleaning solution – you can use regular glass cleaner, vinegar‑water mix (1:1), or even just water for a streak‑free finish.
3. Disposable gloves (optional, for clean hands and to avoid skin irritation from chemicals).
Step‑by‑Step Process1. Spray the glass lightly with your chosen cleaner. If you’re using water, mist the surface evenly.
2. Fold the microfiber cloth into a small, neat square (like in the picture) to create a firm wiping edge.
3. Wipe in a circular motion on the windshield or interior glass, applying gentle pressure. The microfiber absorbs the grime and liquid.
4. Flip the cloth to a clean side and go over the glass again in straight lines to remove any remaining streaks.
5. Inspect the surface. If you spot any marks, repeat the straight‑line wipe with a dry part of the cloth.
Why It Works- Microfiber fibers are finer than regular cloth, picking up particles without scratching the glass.
– Two‑step wiping (circular then straight) prevents streaks by first loosening dirt and then polishing the surface.
– Minimal liquid reduces drips and speeds up drying, giving a crystal‑clear finish.
Tips & Variations- For extra shine, add a few drops of ammonia‑free glass cleaner to the water mix.
– In humid weather, dry the glass with a second dry microfiber towel to avoid water spots.
– The same technique works on side windows, rear windows, and even mirrors.
Give your car’s glass the nana‑approved treatment and enjoy a spotless view every drive 🚗💨🪟.
