Post Glass Cleaning  
The Monte is due for a new windshield and I know the rest of the glass is going to look bad once the new windshield is in.
Any suggestion on how to bring some older glass back to life a bit?

I cannot ever get my windows, especially the back window clean, it always smears. Just drives me crazy and I have tried everything going, including vinegar and newspapers.

Only thing I can add is for those who have tint to ensure to use Ammonia Free Glass cleaner...if it doesn't say it on the bottle don't use it....

Does anybody make glass cleaner with ammonia anymore? I'd like to find some to get the tint of Matt's back window without ruining the rear defroster grid.
