Other than using Windex, what is the best way to clean windows?

I don't have a lot of luck just using Windex. My windows still always seem to look like they need cleaning. I always use a clean cloth to clean with too.

The best way to clean windows and leave a streak free finish to them is good old fashioned vinegar and water...
Mix equal parts vinegar with water in a spray bottle, and instead of using paper towels, ball up some newspaper to wipe them

Some people use vinegar and newspaper.
10% Ammonia and water. Use newspaper instead of rags, or paper towels. That's it!
Oh...clean top to bottom.
i've heard of using JUST a dry newspaper with nothing on it. just crumple it up and wipe the window.
you can use the windex but instead of a cloth or paper towel use newspaper,it has always worked with my cristal windows.
I don't have a clue why, but use newspapers instead of cloth or paper towels. It works great.
Windex works better when you use paper towel not a cloth.
You can also try metho, with paper towel.
These both work well.
i had the same problem cleaning my car windows and found using one clean towel to wash and another to dry does great. If you can get by the smell, vinegar and newspaper.
try using news paper instead of a cloth. using a cloth makes it all measy.
Try Invisible Glass, a product made by Stoner. Available in many auto supply stores.
Duh! The same way you clean your shoes, tell the maid they're dirty.
I found the best way to clean streak free windows is to use 1/4 cup rubbing alcohol to 1/2 cup white vinegar.
add about 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol to the amonia it dries faster!
Make a mixture of vinegar and water and spray that on your windows. Use a newspaper to scrub with and it will do a great job of cleaning your windows.
Put a little bit of rubbing alcohol in the windex. It works great.
On the outside, slop soapy (or windex-diluted) water on the windows with a sponge and clear with a wide squeegee like the pro window washers do. On the inside, use the cleaner of your choice--I like windex--and a dry newspaper. Use a new sheet once it gets wet--the Sunday New York Times can do a whole house.
About 1/4 vinegar with water, and paper towel
