Step 1: Wipe the Windows with a Dry Cleaning Cloth
Start by wiping down the inside of your car windows using a dry microfiber cloth. Use an up-and-down motion from top to bottom to remove the layer of dust and filmy dirt that builds up from the car’s interior (due to plastics, vinyl, and rubber). This initial dry wipe prevents smearing when applying cleaner later on.
