How to Clean Your Windshield Like a Pro

A clean windshield isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s a safety essential. Streaks, smudges, and grime reduce visibility and increase glare, especially at night. Here’s how to clean your windshield like a professional.

What You’ll Need

  • Microfiber cloths (at least 2)
  • Glass cleaner (ammonia-free for tinted windows)
  • Glass Fix Guard FixMyCar™ (for protection after cleaning)

Step-by-Step Windshield Cleaning

  1. Start with a dry wipe: Remove loose dust and debris with a dry microfiber cloth
  2. Apply glass cleaner: Spray directly onto the cloth, not the glass, to avoid overspray
  3. Wipe in circular motions: Cover the entire surface, paying attention to corners
  4. Buff with a clean cloth: Use a second dry microfiber cloth to remove streaks
  5. Apply Glass Fix Guard: Protect your clean windshield with the Glass Fix Guard FixMyCar™ for water repellency and scratch protection

Pro Tips

  • Clean your windshield in the shade — direct sunlight causes streaks
  • Don’t forget the inside of the windshield, which accumulates film from off-gassing
  • Replace your wiper blades every 6–12 months for streak-free wiping
