when cleaning glass, use newspaper instead of paper towels/terry clothes/yourface.

For reals, try it out. Rocks hard.


Funnily enough i buy about 60 tonne of newsprint a week lol

Will try some un printed stuff


I think the ink in the newsprint acts as a polish (or something like that). Also could try using vinegar.

I haveremoved water marks from my windscreen and others using a multi action buffer and Repo Extra Cut.

Always finish off with a wax as well, water will just glide off and your wipers will be smooth and quiet.

I you dont have a power buffer you can also use steelwool or those green scouring pads. (No it doesnt scratch the glass).
