Default Anyone know a good window degreaser?

Windex just kinda beads up. Scrubbing hard works pretty well. Acetone or laquer thinner seems kinda overkill. Damn lithium overspray and fingerprints.

ive heard you can use coca-cola or pepsi or any kind of dark carbonated soda and it will be a wicked clean, ive never tried it myself, sounds messy though.

Windex and newspaper works very good. (to clean windows)

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

Stoner invisible glass if they're wicked dirty. Do it twice, the second time with a light spray. Use a good amount of pressure and a lot of paper towels. I don't suggest doing this on the outside of the windshield though, as it exposes all the pit marks.

After that, plain water in a spray bottle and a microfiber cloth to maintain.

Every once in a while my jerry curl juice drips down the front of my seat and splashes on the driver's side window. I just use a dry rag and smear it onto my dashboard and tires like ArmorAll.

Seriously though, dish soap works fine.
