Glass cleaner
What do you guys use?
I have tried Windex Blue, and am currently using Stoners Invisible glass.
Both with varying degrees of success.
Looking for alternate plan C.

Griots window cleaner. Best I’ve found so far. Super simple. Great bottles too.
What matters too is your towel. I either use the Griot’s PFM window cleaning towel which I find to be the best or Rag Company waffle weave towel. Make sure you’re washing your towels with a microfiber detergent and every few years you’re likely going to need to replace your towels. They’re pretty much consumables. Sort of like floor mats in your car. They may look ok but once you replace with fresh ones you realize what you were missing.
I’ve used stoners invisible glass in the past too and it’s fine. Griot’s just has left things less streaky for me.

What Bxstr said. What I like about Griot\s...other than it works really well with the proper microfiber cloth...is that it comes in non-aerosol spray bottles. I still have a can of Stoner's in aerosol, and the stuff floats all over the place -- so I use it for household use like the storm doors, etc.

Gyeon PREP, or CarPro Clarify.
Rag Co. ~200 ish GSM. - The key is to tackle the inside of the glass from time-to-time as well.
I have a love hat with Waffle Weave window specific towels; sometimes they glide well over the glass, and other times they seem to get hung up on the glass, without gliding easily - no rhyme or reason that I can pin down. This style would be preferred, bc they work really well… well, when they work.

Exactly what I’ve been doing for the past 15 years and have at least a dozen concours wins with zero point loss on glass hazing or smudges. I use the same approach for exterior too. The new Griots blue Glass Towels are excellent BTW.

In my humble opinion
The polish followed by the cleaner has produced the absolute best results I have ever experienced. Always follow up with a freshly washed 100% cotton diaper without any fabric softener. Shine Supply is still a small privately held business.
