Window Cleaning - Steel Wool

steel wool will actually scratch the glass. I'd stick to regular glass cleaning tools. If you have a lot of mineral build-up from rain and such, the stuff thats sold to remove hard water build-up from tubs and bathrooms should work...

Steel wool is harder than glass, so it will scratch it. Try vinegar, ammonia, or CLR.

I've been using ultra-fine steel wool to clean the windows of my cars for many years. Trust me, it will not scratch. If you don't believe me, try it on a piece of scrap glass. Does a good job.

Zud a cleaner similar to comet contains oxilac acid and cleans old glass well. It is designed and advertised as a glass cleaner.

Don't trust him. Many cars have coated windshields that will scratch easily. Plain glass? Probably OK and I have used it. You won't see it anywhere close to a windshield though.
