Cleaning inside of windshield -- using window cleaning mop with long handle

[swinefeaster]

Here’s a video from Out of Spec Detailing on window cleaning. Great video and the chemicals he recommended are legit. He also has a video on cleaning the interior of the CT where he gives a demonstration on cleaning the windshield.

This worked awesome by the way! Thanks

I use a swifter with paper towels and windex

Something like this might be the ticket. https://www.griotsgarage.com/window-cleaner-set/

That works - and if handle is not long enough, many of those types of devices have a "screw off" handle that can be replaced by a 4-foot, 6-foot or even 18-foot (LOL) handle -- I have several with standard screw ends that I usually use for painting, changing lightbulbs in double-high ceiling...

Hmmm, pretty poor ratings by purchasers.

Yes - but like the video says - YOU WORTH IT !!!

I’d love to hear how this storage solution has held up. Looks like a nice setup.

It didn't last past the first 72 hours, with the Heavy-duty double-sided tape it tried at first. I wiped down hood locations with alcohol and used 3M VHB tape this time, and it's been solid for more than a month and on many hot days. It shows no sign of the hold weakening. Check in again in a couple of months.

Glad to see some squeegee buckets with soap and water at at least one Super Charger location. (I5/Harris Ranch)

Thanks for the update!

I did something similar but with magnets. They don't have full strength since the material is not super magnetically friendly, but they don't fall off.

Believe it or not, the absolute best window cleaner I've used is the Xpel Anti-Static Window Tint cleaner. I've been using it for years on my 3, Y, and now Cybertruck. Cleans very well, fast, and no streaks! I ended up buying a gallon of it...

This is the one I am using on my CT. It works fine.

The thing I was astonished at was how dirty the inside of the windshield was at delivery. I don't think the service centers have a tool like this yet....or don't use it.

I have this one. It does a good job but for the life of me I cant get it all the way to the bottom so I have a line at the very bottom of the windshield that is bugging the crap out of me. I think its too thick to get down all the way

Cleaning the inside of the CT's windshield can be a challenge being as deeply recessed as it is. I improvised by wrapping a couple of micro fiber cloths around a window cleaning mop on a longish handle, held on by a couple of sprint clips. I spray Windex on the cloth and go to work. Any other methods you've found effective?

A telescopic pole with a pad or squeegee works well. Unger brand found at Home Depot or online extends to reach exterior and interior of the giant windshield. The windshield is by far that most difficult cleaning task for me.
