I would also like to add that I do not use any products other than distilled water and a micro fiber glass rag on the inside of the windows tinted or untinted.

Untinted - I use the microfiber glass rag dry first with some elbow grease. Then wet a clean side of the rag lightly (just enough water to dampen the rag and cause no drips when pressed hard) and wipe the glass down. Then I go back with another clean and dry glass rag for a wipe down to remove any streaks.

Tinted - windows are basically the same process as above but I never press hard on the rag. I have solarguard tint in my vehicles and have caused no issues with scratches on the tint to date using this method. However I only clean the tint once every few months to reduce the amount of touching on it.

All of my detailing is done in the garage after the vehicle has sat overnight to cool. I run Phillips daylight 100w equalivent led bulbs overhead in the garage.

For inspection steps one and two are broken down. With garage lights on then without garage lights on using a 160w white led headlamp. Final inspection is done in the sunlight.

I am OCD when it comes to cleanliness. I only intentionally touch what is necessary when it comes to my vehicles and try to use common sense in anything I do.

If anyone has a better process for glass I'm open to learning new ideas, please share them.
