Due to the slope of modern windshields, they are extremely difficult to clean. In addition, no matter how many times you do it, when you're driving into the sun you'll notice that a lot of the film is still there. That's where this product comes in.Windshield Wonder Wiper is a fantastic product, however I've found that when used on its own, the results are less than perfect. Unfortunately, there's no way to completely clean your windshield without exerting some effort.Through many years if using this product, I've found that the following technique works best. First, it's essential that your windows aren't dirty. This may sound like it doesn't make sense, but it does. The reason for this is because if you use the Windshield Wonder Wiper on a dirty windshield, you'll be left with streaks or lines running down the glass. This is a result of dirt accumulating on the edges of the cloth and then becoming deposited on the glass. To avoid this, simply spray the windshield with any type of window cleaner or vinegar, and pre-clean it with paper or cloth towels. While this will remove the dirt and grime, the windshield will still be covered with streaks. That's what makes this product so good.After you've removed the dirt and grime, you simply spray a small amount of water onto the microfiber cloth. The long handle and pivoting head allow you to access the entire windshield with ease. Starting at the upper left, you apply a bit of pressure and slowly slide the Windshield Wonder Wiper down to the bottom of the windshield. Simply repeat the process until the entire windshield is clean. You'll be left with a sparkling clean windshield and no streaks or film whatsoever. If desired, repeat the same process on the rear window.The only reason why I rate this product at 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the need to pre-clean the glass. Doing so is a pain, but is necessary for the best results. Since it's all but impossible to get a totally streak free windshield without using this product, I rate this item highly. Just be prepared to do a little preparation work and you'll be all set.I have to admit I was skeptical that this tool would live up to its hype, but it does! My car suffers from "car wash deprivation" due to the COVID situation, so I was desperate to find something to clean the scum off the inside of my windshield. This tool really works. Its comes with a little spray bottle that you fill with water and spray on the cloth. A few back and forth wipes and the scum disappeared. Absolutely amazing. I highly recommend!For years, I was puzzled by a slimy scum on my windshield (inside). We don;t smoke, so I couldn't figure out what it was and I couldn't remove it. I read online that the film is caused by plastic dashboard components off-gassing in the sun and this little tool claims it can help, so I bought it. I love simple tools that do simple tasks well, and this is one.Open the package, clip on the handle, and slip on the micro-fiber cloth that looks sort of like a slipper. Ok, then it was out to the car as I shook my head over how this cloth would fix mu problem. The problem is that I can;t see out my windshield at night with lights glaring on the mung.The package says you don't have to use window cleaner, so being a rebel, I of course squirted an all purpose surface spray on the window and got to work. The window looked clean and sparkly. It was completely easy to reach every corner of the vast and deep windshield of my mini van. I was pleased! But that night, I still had trouble seeing through the glass, though it was better. So. I washed the little microfiber slipper to get the soap out of it. Dried it. Next day I used plain water in the tiny squirt bottle that comes with the tool. Wipe, wipe, wipe--into all the corners, no effort, no problems. That night, I felt like I had gotten a new window, Clear as, well, as glass. :) I keep the tool in my car now, along with the little bottle, and can clean up the windshield (inside and out) any time. The cloths wash out easily under the faucet. God I love low-tech. Follow the direction.I bought my first one at BB&B (local housewares store you know so well). It was cheaper here on Amazon. NOTE: You CANNOT buy additional microfiber covers for these, even though they are advertised on the packaging. The included "Special Offer" coupon in the package is dead-on-arrival since the address and website will not respond. I sent it off by mail with a check when I wanted to add two more covers, but that check was returned, marked "We don't sell these additional covers any longer."The product, itself, works VERY well. Most windshield cleaner tools are poorly-designed. The heads flop all over and will not maintain direction. Nor will they stay flat to the windshield. THIS one not only stays flat, but goes where you push it. The small head size is an advantage for tight areas. But that small head size also means the microfiber becomes drenched faster when you are soaking up condensation on a chilly morning (I use it mostly for this purpose as RV windshields fog-up very quickly overnight). Therefore, you may want to buy 2 in order to have extra covers. Switching them out is very easy, and the microfiber has a nice texture and nap.I own 3 of these, now. I did not get paid for this Review, nor was I offered any free products. I would stick with this "Windshield Wonder" brand - but a few competitors on Amazon look identical. These typically sell for $10, elsewhere -- do NOT pay $20.El invento parece valido pero me dejó marcas en el cristal, luego no cumple su función bien.Desconozco si cambiara el tipo de tejido del paño si funcionaría bien.No lo recomiendo.
