get the glass wizard and use it with whatever cleaner you are planning to buy. the glass wizard will definitely help you to reach the hard to reach area. btw, don't order it online. i bought mine in a local store for $10, why pay the extra shipping ?

no, i bought the glass wizard at the local store, not the griot's stuff. if you want to reach all the way into the crack, i think you have to make up your own tool .

I just ordered the window cleaner wipes at Griot's Garage (along with a bunch of microfiber towels and other stuff) ... placed the order online yesterday morning and the box just arrived at my house. Now that's service.

Excuse me while I go try the wipes ...

hey, that stuff works well. I finally got rid of the chlorine smears on the inside of the windshield.

Hat tip to Stream. Thanks.

Yep--they're the best I've ever used. After you use them, you can't believe how clear your glass could be!
