I used to have a persistent oil film on my windshield, which affected visibility, especially during rainy days when the wipers couldn’t clear it properly, making driving unsafe. My usual method is to first rinse the glass with water and wait a minute or two for the grime to soften before wiping. Then, I mix a bit of household dish soap with warm water, soak a towel in it, and wipe the glass once—dish soap has degreasing properties and won’t harm the glass too much. After wiping, rinse off the bubbles with clean water, and finally dry it with a dry cloth or newspaper (newspaper leaves no lint). For stubborn stains, like grease splashed from the roadside, I use a dedicated automotive glass cleaner spray—available online for a few dozen yuan per bottle, and it works well. Throughout the process, avoid applying too much force to prevent scratching the glass. Doing this regularly helps maintain clear visibility. Never use sandpaper or sharp tools to scrape—it’s not worth the damage.
