Sprayaway glass cleaner + Waffle Weave Microfiber cleaner is all you need. Never seen a professional detailer use this gismo before.

On 06+ Civics you can't get your hand between the cluster pod and windshield by a fair margin. This would come in handy.

This product is a nice idea but I wouldn't buy it. Having the cloth on the end of a stick reduces the amount of pressure that you need to clean windows without leaving annoying smudge marks.

Just use your hand, you will be able to apply more pressure to the window and you probably won't have to go over the same spot as many times as with the Windshield Wonder. How often do you clean your front/rear windows anyways? Thats right..rarely.

It's not about being lazy or using whatever rag or MF towel....

It's difficult to get your hand near the base of the windshield. I have a very slanted windshield and it is hard to clean with just your hand.

Some people in this thread are having a really hard time grasping this concept..

Free bump for adbot!

Can anyone confirm that the $6.99 shipping includes Canada? I called their customer service, and the guy said he didn't know.

I don't wanna order it for $10 bucks and then pay $20 bucks in shipping because it's Canada or something..
