cleaning inside front windshield?

I am having a hard time trying to clean the inside of the front windshield. It's a real PITA. Whenever I try to clean it, I can't get it clean completely. There would be leftoever streaks that I couldn't get rid of. How do you guys clean the inside of the front windshield? What do you use?

What kind of media are you using to do your wiping? I've been pretty happy with just using 20/20 and a MF cloth to wipe.

Another favourite is newspaper, but I haven't tried that yet.

I used the blue shop towel to wipe. And Windex to clean. I haven't try newspaper, so I might give that a try.

Newspaper is a sure-fire way to avoid streaking, unfortunately beer is not as good of a solution...just ask Will Ferrell.

Newspaper man, it leaves it streakless and clean. I also use the Eagle stuff, forgot the name.

I've been using windex (carefully) and newspaper to wipe off. Works great (and cheap) - no streaks.

Yes. Spray it on and wipe it off. Ink doesn't bleed. It can be used on outside windows. Pretty simple...
