When it comes to maintaining your vehicle, one aspect that often gets overlooked is cleaning the car windows. Many people simply hose down the windows or use regular car soap, but this doesn't provide the thorough cleaning that your car windows truly deserve. In this comprehensive guide, we'll show you how to clean your car windows the right way, ensuring maximum visibility and a spotless finish.


Inside vs. Outside: Different Cleaning Needs

To achieve perfectly clean car windows, you need to address both the interior and exterior. Each side has its unique challenges:


Inside Windows

- Accumulate a tint film over time, affecting visibility.

- Are prone to hand smudges, especially from kids.


Outside Windows

- Encounter water and dirt spots, even from rain.

- Face challenges like snow, ice build-up, mud, grease, and gas particulates.


While the cleaning process is similar for both, there are slight differences to consider. Let's dive into how to clean car windows on the inside and outside separately.


How to Clean Inside Car Windows

The Cleaner

Start with a dedicated car glass cleaner for maximum effectiveness. Consider using a glass coating like Mayon Auto Garage's Hydrophobic Glass Coating to protect your glass from future dirtiness.


Cloth

Use a high-quality microfiber cloth that won't leave fibrous materials behind on your car's glass.


Spray

Spray the glass cleaner directly onto the microfiber cloth to avoid overspray and wasted cleaner.


Wiping Technique

Wipe the window in both up-and-down and side-to-side motions to prevent streaks. Use a gentle amount of glass cleaner, as it will dry quickly.


How to Clean Outside Car Windows


Prep

Before cleaning outside windows, wash your car thoroughly. Regular glass cleaner is not designed to remove heavy dirt stains or smeared bugs, so a prior car wash is essential.


Spray

You can spray the glass cleaner directly onto the window or onto a microfiber cloth.


Wipe

Use a microfiber cloth and the same wiping techniques to clean your outside windows without oversaturating them.


General Window Cleaning Tips

- Avoid cleaning warm windows as the cleaner may dry too quickly, causing smears.

- Don't forget to clean the tops of your windows, where the glass meets the rubber seal.

- Clean your wiper blades with glass cleaner to ensure a clear field of vision.


Conclusion

Cleaning your car windows doesn't take much time but can make a world of difference in your driving experience. Freshly clean car glass not only looks better but also enhances safety on the road. We recommend cleaning your car windows at least once every two weeks. For any questions or assistance, feel free to reach out to us at Mayon Auto Garage.
