Default streaking windshield?
Any remedies? I cleaned my wipers really good and they are fairly new so I am pretty sure they aren't the problem.

Eagle One 20/20 is the best glass cleaner IMHO. Also waxing the windows helps prevent streaking.

Streaking when you are using your wipers? Or streaking when you clean the windshield?

And I just thought of this too. I just replaced the windshield wiper blades on my 1989 Civic Si. I think the wipers have been on there since the car was brought new. When my new wipers wipe they leak lines of water, which I think are scratches from just years of use (considering how old the car is). I think I need a new windshield.

I'm going to try one thing before I do that. And that's some Bug & Tar remover and try to polish the glass.
