@Jbravo23 do you need chemical spray it first before use or it’s like presoaked?

If we’re talking interior, no. I’ve never used any chemicals. I just use the pad for any marks or fog that tends to build up.

The (now) damp cotton towel I use for buffing the washed vehicle exterior glass dry also works great for cleaning the interior glass.

It's just glass - any glass cleaner will work. Maybe the reason it isn't getting as clean as you want is because interior surfaces tend to collect oil, which quickly soils any towel. Clean multiple times if you need to, rotating to a fresh part of the towel or a new one entirely.

Mine just tend to have a foggy residue, even after cleaning. The next day it’s just a film on the glass.
