Windowlene is THE best stuff I've found for cleaning windows.
Followed by Carlack windscreen proectant stuff. 2-3coats of it lasts 1yr+!

I use Amway`s "SeeSpray " concentrate , not cheap but does the job I like for my washer bottle and the aerosol is brilliant , you get that ammonia smell first but that soon goes , my mate is a smoker and he finds it great for cleaning his interior hard bits

End of the day if it does for you , use whatever , we are all different
