Invisble Glass is the best I've found.

Here's a good tip when cleaning both inside and outside of the glass: Wipe the inside up & down and the outside left to right. That way if you do notice streaks, you know what needs to be redone instead of doing all that work over again.

Same. I thought it was crazy at first to use newspaper, but it works better than anything else.

Windex + newspaper to wash = no streaks.

DO not use Windex or anything with ammonia if you are tinted, it will end up destroying your tint.

Get an aerosol can of invisible glass, I have had the best luck with it. You must get it really really clean and dry it multiple times if you want to keep streaks away. Most of that streaking is skin oil, cleaner residue, and grime that isn't washed off well enough. Sometimes if my windows are really dirty I will just use water with a tiny drop of soap in it. Try just plain water too, it works well and washes away the window cleaner residue. If your water is really hard it could leave residue too.

Use newspaper. Grab a sheet, crumple it up, and wipe down the window. Don't judge it without trying it.

you have to wipe the window until dry.. wipe the streak off.. if you wipe too wet it is worse.
