0 Perez Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Yes adams glass cleaner and double soft towels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bill-V8V Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 You should use the glass towel, that is most likely your problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Perez Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 i was thinking i had some residue left on the double soft. but today i had a freshly cleaned double soft and them **** streaks still there laughing at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bill-V8V Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Do you have a waterless wash towel or a great white drying towel ? They both work better with the glass cleaner than a double soft IMHO. I believe there was a member not long ago who had this same issue until he got the glass towel to go with the glass cleaner. At that time there was talk of only selling the two as a kit instead of selling them separately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Perez Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 no i dont have a ww towel i only have 2 double softs... time for some more towels i guess..seems it should work great with any towel though. oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The double soft is built a specific purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mbreyer Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Get the glass towels it improved the results for me a ton. The doublesoft towels are just not "dense" enough if you will to get all the leftover cleaner without multiple passes. Plus the glass towels are double sided for stubborn residue and then for a perfect finish:thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Team Adam's Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Glass towels are (shockingly) best for glass, with WW being a close second, and I'd put the utility towels as a 3rd place option. The plush towels suck at cleaning glass... thats not what they're designed for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Perez Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 ok ok i need the glass towels... thanks for replys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 texn884 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Another option take the glass out of the car and get some good goggles and keep your mouth shut when going down the highway. The towels foe the window cleaner kick butt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dv3andrs Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I was highly impressed with my 1st time use of the glass cleaner with the glass towel. Streak free and dare I say it...Clear as glass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mcss383 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 What I have found is wet VRT will streak and make getting it off more difficult (gets in the towel). Wipe the excess off the trim surrounding your glass with one towel and use a clean WW or preferably glass towel and the glass will clean up streak free. Another tip, use one side of the towel for the first pass after you spray and then go to a dry side to finish. When the towel gets saturated use it only for the first wipe and then get a clean, dry one to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ElkyBryan Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 You should use the glass towel, that is most likely your problem. I get streaks using the GC and the galss towels. But here are not nearly as bad as before switching to Adams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bill-V8V Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Seems you are having a few problems Bryan, are you in Denver CO or PA ? If you are in CO you should swing by the warehouse. I'm sure someone would take a few minutes to work with you on technique :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ElkyBryan Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I am in Colorado. And I have been to the warehouse a couple of times. The streaks I got were fairly minor compared to what I got before switching to GC and the glass towels. I think most of them were caused by being in a hurry. I tried to clean the inside of the car in the half hour or so between two of the worst thunderstorms we have had here in as long as I can remember. I was close to Boulder this afternoon and it was coming down so hard you could hardly see tot he end of your car hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 texn884 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I have not been able to get the inside of the windshield streak free using the Adams glass cleaner and towels. I am not sure if it is how I am doing it but in the sunlight I see spots where the cloudy areas are. I was the towels on a regular basis and I don't use any wash additives. Plus when I use the windshield sun blocker during the week the inside gets all cloudy in certain areas. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
