How do you clean the rear window

Jrodd · Sep 27, 2006

Hi everyone
Im about 6'2" does anyone know how the best way to clean the inside of the rear window? I guess what I mean is how do you reach it? I know the rear seats really aren't meant to be used by a normal person, let alone a stout fella such as myself, but there has got to be an easy way to do it. Please let me know.

I'm 5' 10" 185lbs and there just is not an easy way. Windex it the best you can then buff it with a micro fiber towel.

BLR, are you getting the streaks on the windows or the paint?

Cleaning the inside back window IS a pain..or is it a cramp???

Looks like I may need to try that out mhk...thanks for the tip.

i have a Black 06 and hand wash her every weekend. I used a chamois for years but read that they are harder on the paint than some of the higher grade towels. i bought some Der Wunder drying towels and they work great. They are a little more work than using the chamois but they are worth it, and i have no streaks, at all, and i was using well water until recently when i hooked the garage to the water softener. It might be your water if a chamois dos not work. By the way you do not wash and dry the car in sunlight do you?

Hey thanks that looks great I think I will pick one up thanks a bunch

I bought this tool (a little over a foot in length) which has a triangular foam head which you can attach cloth bonnets to it...it's able to get into the corners and it makes it easy to clean the windows inside your cars. I wish I could remember the name of it and where I bought it...check at one of the auto parts stores (Advanced Auto, PeP Boys, etc.)...

Have you tried dropping the seats and crawling through the
trunk? No, huh. So it's just me. Nevermind.

I actually thought about doing that as a last resort, but I thought I would ask everyone here first, as Im sure Im not the only one with this problem. I actually think I will try mhk's idea first but if that still doesn't reach I will actually try your idea with his. Just to let you know though Im not built like James Bond....... more like James Bon Bon.
