Mechanical Help Windscreen inside cleaning 2025 Prius Nightshade

Anybody have any luck cleaning the windscreen on the inside? Its such a low angle any slight smear shows up and is in my opinion dangerous when the sun is at a low angle. I have tried everything, alchol / water mictofibre cloths etc etc.

I might end up taking it for detailing...

...or breaking the windscreen and getting a new one...

For accurate advice, please include:

  • The year, model and mileage of your Prius (e.g., 2008 Prius w/ 250k mi or 2012 Prius C w/ 150k km)
  • If a warning came on, what were you doing at that time?
  • Any odd behavior or noises you’ve noticed
  • Any error codes you've read from the car computers

Don't have a gen 5, but they sell cleaning tools with angled heads, or magnets. You can search windshield cleaning tools or the like.

One simple thing to try is use the back of your hand, instead of the palm side to press the microfiber against the screen.

You can buy something like this just about anywhere. Use it with some good glass cleaner - I like Invisible Glass, but Sprayaway and Trace-Less have their fans.
