Finally--->CLEAN WINDOWS WITH NO STREAKS!
As we all know, the S2000 windshield is a magnet for bugs (and rocks) so I clean my windows almost every day. Well, after about 25 years of trying to find a way to clean my car windows without leaving streaks all over the place, I finally stumbled upon a solution. I've tried every brand of window cleaner I could find, only to be frustrated by the same streaky windows.
I normally use paper towels, thinking that they would give me the best chance of reducing streaks and lint from most towels. The new "rage" of microfiber towels didn't work well on windows, they seem to cling to the glass too much.
While at Target a while ago I spotted some lint-free window towels and decided to give them a try (I have a tendency to by any new car care product I see). They are MAGICAL! I can't believe that it took me this long to find a solution, but I'm happy that I finally found it. Used in combination with a good window cleaner these towels produce almost no streaks. My current favorite window cleaner is an automotive glass cleaner by Armor All, Rain-X also makes a good window cleaner, but I can't seem to find it anymore.
Give these towels a try, I think you'll like 'em.

Excellent. 
Y'know, Target has sort of "beefed up" their automotive section lately. I buy my Meg's products there, and I always seem to find some good things there. I haven't seen these towels yet. They look like they can be washed and used over again; not your normal paper towels. I've seen the lint-free paper towels, but they're too expensive.

Also, try Zaino glass polish. It works like wax, fairly easy to use, and makes the windows much easier to clean. If I could get my wife to stop using on the house windows I'd be all set!!!
