How to Clean the Inside of a Windshield With a Microfiber Tool

A strip of haze along the base of the windshield can be hard to reach by hand. Work with the car parked and the glass cool. Set the handle length so you can keep the pad flat against the glass without pressing hard on the dashboard.

Use one pad to clean and another to finish

Check the pad for grit before it touches the glass. Use a cleaner suitable for your glass or tint and apply it to the cloth according to its directions. Make overlapping passes across a small section, then use a clean dry pad to remove the remaining film. Check the area from a second angle before moving on.

Tool or refill?

The telescopic interior windshield cleaner has separate tool, set and replacement-cloth choices. Select a handled option for a first purchase. The six-cloth option is for someone who already has a compatible tool. Keep used pads separate from clean ones so grit from another surface does not transfer to the glass.
