The first time I washed my model 3 I noticed the glass seemed to grow streaks within hours of careful cleaning. Thinking this was just some initial film or manufacturing contaminant on the windows I just kept wiping them down every day or so. Was odd because it was garaged when not in use.
After 5000 miles I did a little research and found this was an issue on a some luxury cars and detailers recommended always finishing with windshield glass cloths. I have had a jaguar and several BMWs and haven’t had this problem before but figured I would give them a try while we are isolating on top of a very dusty mountain .
Found that anything searched for on amazon that is automotive associated won’t ship until after April 21 (covid rules). However, I was able to find a 12 pack of mr siga ultra fine microfiber cloths for glass on amazon under kitchenware (which is considered essential I guess as it had 2 day delivery.) These large cloths worked absolutely great on the car glass. Also work great on the touchscreen (I have a tempered glass protector on it). On the windows, basically damp microfiber wash and then the mr siga cloths for final dry wipe. No lint or streaks so far.
