PM sent supplysgt. It was quite disrespectful starting this, posting weather never hurt anybody, if things are wrong the worst that happens is its sunny and a nice day. and as said in the PM if you can do it better, by all means go for it every morning. I'm done posting weather.

How to Clean a Glass Windshield

Edited by Carolyn Barratt, Barbaroo, Harri, Maluniu and 1 other
Keeping your vehicle's windshield clean is an easy, yet extremely important, way to make your vehicle safer for you, your loved ones and other drivers on the road. It's not hard to let dirt, bugs and other visual hindrances build up on your windshield. Fortunately, there are a wide variety of products and techniques that will leave your windshield clean and streak-free.

Steps




  • 1
    Find the right cleaning solution. Every car nerd has their favorite brand or formula from ammonia-based glass cleaners to TSP or simply soap and water. If you choose to use ammonia, be careful not to spill it on any vinyl, leather or rubber your vehicle may have. Keep in mind that ammonia is very harmful to a variety of materials. Ammonia can also be hazardous to your health, so be wary of using it on the interior of you car. Spray-bottle glass cleaners are the most popular solution.

  • 2
    Wash the windshield with water before adding the cleaning solution. Scrub water in straight lines with a soft brush. Only use horizontal or vertical motions; there's no need to scrub too hard because you're only doing an initial wash to loosen the grime up.

  • 3
    Add the glass-cleaning solution. Spray the cleaner to one side of a towel. A microfiber towel is best if you have one, and begin cleaning. Use long broad strokes and work from one side to the other for a cleaner, clearer result. It doesn't take long, but giving that extra attention to detail can make a real difference in how well you can see out of your windshield. If residue remains after the first run, do it again until you get it right.

  • 4
    Allow the windshield to thoroughly dry.

  • 5
    Prevent dirty windshields in the first place. Make sure your wiper fluid is full and that your blades are in working order. Blades need to be replaced once every 2 to 3 years. If there is some buildup on the wiper blade itself, try wiping the blade down with rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits. The angle of the blade is also important. Adjust the arm of your windshield wiper to about 70 degrees (versus a straight vertical 90 degree arm). If your wipers are really dirty, scrub them down with baking soda and water.

Good morning everyone nicest week we have had in awhile. Temps reached 70's and are supposed to reach 80's tomorow. Red needs a bath so she will be getting it but not too in depth beacuse rain is on its way this weekend. About to start my day at work.
The car... red went into max adapt mode on the trans yesterday but I had led the car idling in the sun for about 40 mins and trans temp was a t 226. Once I shut her down and let it cool she leveled out at 180 and didnt show a sign of a hard shift at all.
