How to Clean the Inside of a Windshield When It's Hard to Wipe Clean?

Mix some dish soap with water, and you can clean the inside thoroughly. Soapy water is the best choice; a gentle wipe will make it clean. Use a small piece of cloth and then apply thinner to wipe the glass surface.

I used to frequently encounter the issue of not being able to clean the inside of the windshield properly, especially on rainy days or after prolonged use of the air conditioning. It felt like a greasy film had formed, severely affecting visibility. Initially, I tried wiping it repeatedly with a regular towel, only to make it dirtier. Later, I realized it was due to the accumulation of oils from fingerprints. I switched to using a microfiber cloth with a dedicated glass cleaner, starting from the corners with gentle circular motions and finishing with a dry cloth. Now it's much clearer. Remember to choose a dry day for this task to avoid moisture interference, which can leave water streaks and reduce effectiveness. If you can't manage it yourself, it's advisable to visit a professional car wash where they use powerful tools to handle it effortlessly. Additionally, reducing habits like eating in the car or touching the glass can help minimize dirt buildup.
