Have you de-scummed your glass yet?
This is my 3rd Tesla. First was a Model 3P in 2018 and I never felt I could really get the glass clean and never resolved it before I sold it. Then a year later I traded for a 2019 Model X and noticed the same thing and this time I was gonna figure it out, and I did. See 2019 Model X Polishing...

It's definitely not "scum". The magic eraser won't even remove it.

There's a pretty big difference between scrubbing with a magic eraser and using an orbital buffer with glass polish. Can't imagine it would hurt to try.
It’s on the inside though, but there’s no change when I scrub with a magic eraser, so I’m starting to think it’s in-between layers

I had this on my refresh Model X that I took delivery of in June. I bought Griot's Garage Glass Cleaning Clay (it's a blue clay), wore a pair of gloves (stains hands easily), sprayed some Griot's Speed Shine and used the clay in a ball to wipe it thoroughly. After- I cleaned it with regular glass cleaner and it all came off. It was all on the interior of the windshield. Hope this helps!

2 months in and I'm still battling this haze on my 22MX. I tried multiple window cleaners with no results. I also tried the Girots window clay (but used windex instead of speed shine) and I think it caused a marginal improvement. I have now gone after my interior windshield several times and it does seem a little better and clearer...but man I've never encountered haze like that. Now we're seeing some heavy rains this week and I'm seeing another haze on the OUTSIDE of my windshield that is highlighted in between windshield wipes. It's really bad in heavy rain as it starts to obstruct the view. I used my clay bar on the exterior driver side but it hasn't rained since so I don't know if it did anything yet. When the wipers would move across the window, it would show a haze outline of what appeared to be something across the entire window with various drips here and there. Like some liquid was applied prior to delivery and dried on there. In any event, I'm so tired of cleaning my windshield!
You should never use windex in a car. Or any other ammonia based glass cleaner for that matter. Buy yourself a case of stoners invisible glass.
I know. I paid half what you paid and have the haze. I am bringing it to service on Sunday for other items and immediately sent them pictures. They said they will fix the haze. I have the backup plan which was on a thread- Griots Garage Speed Shine.

I get a haze likely from moisture buildup in both the front and back that I have to wipe off with a microfiber cloth frequently.
Is this what you all are referring to? Does Griot's fix that?

That happens with all cars until the end of time. We're talking about the perma-haze that doesn't wipe off easily.

I have to wipe almost every day. Defoggers have no impact.
But I do see a permahaze around the edges. Looks like the service center might have worked on it.
