The title was spelt that way for the benefit of the borneo cannibals who as they clean out the cooking pots after eating a missionary or two , say " well that wasn't too
grasy was it." ?.
Fancy not knowing that .
I must admit there was something in your suggestion as when the petrol runs down the winner windscreen it will help to soften the grasy . upgrade your score to 2 .

Then there was the one about the two cannibals who ate two comedians; whilst eating one says to the other does this taste funny to you.

I think the use of any silicon spray used as a dash cleaner gets leached off by the action of the sun and sticks to inside of windscreen and is a devil to remove.

Thanks but my matrix is OK, just been to the doctors as it wasn't that that started leaking
I think the main cause was just negligence as when new it was a large organisations hack in which anyone used it and therefore nobody cared ,as long as they could see out of the drivers side the rest was ignored.
You may have been right as I don't know if the heater matrix had went bust in the past and been replaced for as you say it leaves a film of vaporized coolant on the inside of the screen which is very difficult to remove.
Had it with a transit once going to London on the M6 and had no option but to keep topping up the radiator at every service station and buy windscreen cleaner so I could see out.
Sometimes a tin of radiator sealer helps

I vape and find my windscreen gets greasy as well. I use vodka and then a window cleaner.
