MINI Detailing Tip #478 - Cleaning the Interior Sunroof Glass BEWARE THE GREASE!

Always a new lesson to be learned....

This morning, I'm finishing up my weekly Clubman Cleaning and I decide to use my new Detailers Paradise Microfiber Glass Cloth on the inside of my sunroof.

Everything is fine till I do the edges. Pull the cloth back and it loaded up with some nice gobs of white grease from the sunroof rails. Fortunately, that was the last window to be cleaned. I hope I did the right thing, but I loaded the cloth up with some hand washing soap, scrubbed the heck out of it and wrung it out. Looks pretty good.

But be careful with that sun roof glass!

I would recommend washing your MF Towels in the washer using a FREE Detergent like Tide Free. Don't use Fabric Softner or Dryer Sheets. So far I've had good luck at keeping my MF clean and fresh. For windows Detailer's Paradise has a Great MF Glass Cleaning Cloth, I wash this along with my other MF. The only towel I wash separate is my Waffle Weave Drying Towel, Griots has a special detergent in a bottle for it.
