In research we found that more expensive “higher quality” paper towels have additives in them that cause the aquapel to leave streak marks behind. A cheap paper towel (maybe store brand) does not have these additives and left behind a clean surface on all glass I applied it to. Also, the glass needs to be very very clean before you apply it. After a normal wash, you need to wipe it down really well with isopropyl alcohol. I normally use crinkled up newspaper to wipe the windows, works like a charm. think i could use it to dry after aquapel? --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/windshield-repellent/193598)._
