Streaky windows are such a pain! Luckily, you can clean your car windows without leaving streaks by using these three window-cleaning tips.
Keep your car out of the sun
Use a microfiber towel
Take your time
One of the biggest mistakes people make is cleaning their car in the sun. The sun heats up your vehicle and forces the cleaner to evaporate much faster than it should—leaving streaks all over your car. Believe me, the shade is your best friend when it comes to cleaning your windows.
Microfiber towels will make sure you aren’t leaving behind any lint or cloth residue. They’re also more absorbent, so they’ll take all the soap and gunk along with them instead of smearing it across your windows. But the biggest tip is to take your time. Rushed strokes and lazy rinses are surefire ways to leave streaks behind.
