Apply a layer of shaving cream to the inside of the windshield and then wipe it off thoroughly with a clean cloth. Shaving cream contains many of the same ingredients found in commercial defoggers.
5. Magic Eraser:
Gently apply a slightly damp Magic Eraser to tough spots on the windshield. Be cautious and use light pressure to avoid any scratches. After the application, wipe clean with a microfiber towel.
6. New Windshield Wipers:
Replacing old, worn-out windshield wipers can prevent smearing and reduce the haze on your windshield. Ensure you replace wipers at least once a year or whenever you notice a decline in performance.
7. Windshield Treatment Products:
Use products like Rain-X or Aquapel to treat the windshield. These products repel rain and resist the buildup of grime and pollutants that can cause haze.
8. Toothpaste (Non-gel):
Apply a small amount of non-gel toothpaste to a microfiber cloth and work in circular motions on the hazy areas. Toothpaste has fine abrasives that can polish away the haze without damaging the glass.
9. Baking Soda:
Create a paste with a small amount of water and baking soda. Apply the paste to the hazy areas of the windshield and wipe away with a microfiber cloth. Baking soda is a mild abrasive that can effectively clean without causing scratches.
10. Preventative Measures:
Regularly clean your dashboard to prevent the emission of gases that lead to haze, avoid smoking inside the vehicle, and park in shaded areas or use a sunshade to minimize the effects of the sun on your dashboard’s materials.

These methods will not only help maintain clear visibility while driving but also contribute to the overall upkeep of your vehicle’s windows. Remember, regular maintenance is key to preventing windshield haze from reoccurring. Happy driving!
