Cleaning rear interior glass, how do you do it?

[Jerry Carguy]

Detailing entire vehicle yesterday, ran into a challenge. I didn't even try to get to that coupe rear glass after seeing such tight quarters. There must be a trick to it. Tell me how you do it.

My mom had me use one of these to clean her windshield a few years ago. I laughed until I used it, now I own one. https://www.amazon.com/KNAFIT-Exten...jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

I use one of those goofy little stick things too.

I’m sure the two cleaning sticks that were already shown will work fine but I‘ve had this one from Invisible Glass for years with no issues.

There is one alternative if you’re limber. Fold down the back seats and go through the trunk. It’s a little awkward but it works.

I use one of those microfiber stick tools as well.

check for the Invisible glass kit. You can't go wrong. The one I bought came with the stick, 2 pads and a can of their magig glass cleaner safe for tinted windows.

Check out the 'What's in DFB's Cabinet?' sticky. Always a good place to start.

The Stoner's Reach and Clean Tool is 100% a necessity for any Mustang Hardtop's owner. For me, getting folded into the back seat is one thing, attempting to deal with the angle and depth of the screen is another. The tool also allows access right to the very bottom of the screen, which is hard to access due to the parcel shelf design and trim.

Also good at getting easy coverage on the outside of larger pickups rather than having to reach out awkwardly to get the middle of the screen done.

My go-to glass cleaner is also Stoners, in liquid form compared to the foaming type. It's cheap, available everywhere and gives excellent results. For towels, you want waffle weave to limit linting. And please, no newspaper, the ink that would help clean glass has not been used in decades.

Also, if the glass has not been cleaned in a long time and has a lot of film build up, you are best to clean it twice. The first cleaning will remove the bulk of that film, then put those towels aside and clean the glass again with fresh towels. This helps to limit simply pushing the grime around. And make sure the glass is not in direct sunlight or hot, this will induce smearing............ask me how I know this!

For all interior glass, it's safer to spray the product into your towel (or the Reach and Clean Tool) rather than directly onto the glass. This helps to avoid getting glass cleaner stains on your plastics and trim.

Another product to look at would be the Carpro Glass Mitt -

These are really well shaped for getting right into the corners and depths of interior glass.

I drop the rear seats and slide my body into the trunk while im on my back. Makes it comfortable and easy.

I also keep a cleaner stick with a microfiber end on it tucked on the floor in the back seat. That way, when I stop at a light when the sun is low and notice the windshield is coated in a glaring film yet again I can knock it out real quick

D: I also use the Stoner Stick but I throw a MF towel over the head instead of using the pads.

I must give that a try as the Stoners bonnets are pretty crappy to be honest.
