What do lot use to clean the windows on your motor?
It's the one thing I hate being dirty/smeary but it's also the one thing I hate doing!
I use a glass cleaner and some kitchen roll.
Anything better out there that does a pucka job?
Cheers

u get a nice shine if you finish them off with white vinegar on a cloth makes them very sparkly

If it's gunked up and dirty, use methylated spirits with a soft cloth first [you'll be surprised how black the cloth gets even on a clean window], then do what Guzzler said
