Be carefull when u wash them without washing the grit off first by a hose or throwing a bucket of water on them.If u dont small minute grains of dirt will scratch them.I use Showroom shine on them and dont have to worry about grit etc,it brings them up first class and a brilliant shine.. ------------- Animals have feelings..

Always used to use a spray on glass cleaner and kitchen towel. Just used loads of it to avoid grit scratches.
I now carry Showroom shine, which is excellent for cleaning the van and windows (now on BOGOF)

I use Autoglym Fast Glass both inside and out. It cleans a treat and leaves no smears. I also carry a bottle of Showroom Shine for on site cleaning of the van if it has been a dirty trip.

Hi Smiledmd, Another one for show room shine leaves a good shine and helps keep the dirt off.

On my last older van there were tell tale scratches over all the windows, probably due to not being washed with copious water before polishing.
The miracle cure I was recommended was to use Aircraft cockpit cleaner available from Ebay. This is in effect a very fine type of T cut. With a bit of elbow grease the smears / scratches polished out to a marvelous clear shine

Hi amaboverd, don’t see why not as they use it on show room cars, and they have a paint seal. ------------- If everything runs smoothly then I must have done something wrong

Jeff - I'm afraid I did just what you said not to last year. Cleaned them before wetting first - any clues how to get rid of some of the scratches?
Could kick myself!! They show up a lot when in bright sun.
