I'd drink the vodka and then wouldn't have to worry about a greasy screen.........

Just tried newspaper :-(
Finally found a place that stocks the 'proper' Windolene (pink bottle - thick creamy stuff), lots of elbow grease later - worked just fine. I did want to try the vodka fix but my wife knows me too well and nixed that idea.
Windolene spray was crap - save your money.

Been looking for some of the pink stuff for a while, where did you get it?
How's the Mini btw?
Autoglym car glass polish is similar to the old pink windolene (exept it's blue) but works very well on smeary greasy windscreens.

Good to know the Mini is still going strong, it was interesting to see things unfold from undoing bodges to following things found in German & Polish!
After a root around, it seems that pink Windolene is making a comeback, fortunately I only need to go as far as B&Q...
