What You Need
Many people tint their car windows for a sleek, modern look, but tinted windows do more than just enhance style. They block up to 99% of harmful UV rays, protect your car's interior from sun damage, keep the cabin cooler (reducing AC use and saving fuel), and even help hold glass together in the event of a collision.

How to clean tinted windows
To keep your tinted windows looking their best and extend their life, avoid ammonia-based cleaners - they can dry out and fade the tint. Also skip abrasive tools like paper towels, scouring pads, or newspapers that can scratch the film.
The safe solution
Simple Green Glass Cleaner is ammonia- and phosphate-free, making it safe for tinted windows. The ready-to-use formula cuts through fingerprints, smudges, and grime, leaving behind a streak-free, crystal-clear finish.
Clean your car in the shade whenever possible. Sunlight can dry water and cleaner too quickly, leaving streaks and making it harder to get an even clean. For the exterior sides of your windows, wait until after you've washed the rest of the car—this prevents splashing dirty water onto freshly cleaned glass.
