A dirty windshield can be very dangerous because it restricts or blocks your view, especially if traveling in an area with a lot of bugs. Keeping the glass on your vehicle clean is as important as checking the oil and tire pressure. |

+ | The outside of the glass is not very hard. Choose the glass cleaner of your liking, spray it on liberally, rub vigorously back and fort, and in circles, concentrating on the edges, until clean. | ||

+ | *Vinegar and water. | ||
+ | *Squeegee (They come single and double-sided, and telescopic handles are available too.) | ||
+ | *Newspaper (Works well, but can leave ink on your hands. | ||
− | + | ==Notes== | |
+ | *The windshield and back glass are the hardest to get perfectly clean, because of the angle. | ||
+ | *Put a towel on the dashboard to keep any excess liquid from getting into the instrument panel. | ||
+ | *The edges and the area around the rear view mirror are easy to miss -- be sure to focus on them. | ||
+ | *Have a trash bag handy for the used towels. | ||
+ | *If you have a light colored interior, be sure not to set a dirty paper towel on a seat or piece that the dirt can bleed in. | ||
+ | ==Rain-X= | ||
+ | ''basic description of Rain-X goes here'' | ||
− | + | ===Application=== | |
− | + | *Before applying Rain-X, make sure that the glass is perfectly clean. Any dirt or bugs left behind will get sealed in if Rain-X is applied over them. | |
− | + | *Apply a generous amount to a clean paper towel, and then squirt it on the glass, applying in a circular motion while not letting any drip off the glass. | |
− | + | *Always make sure you apply to the whole piece of glass. | |
− | + | *Be careful not to get any onto anything else -- glass only. | |
− | + | *Sometimes more than one application may be needed, especially when using for the first time. | |
