I have a shop here in pasadena, tx and all those things work,but has it's disadvantages.steel wool brakes down into very
littal peaces that will get stuck in your window felts &
on you exterior paint,if you do not totally remove it ,the next time it rains or you wash the car ,those peaces will rust leaving
spots on the paint.
Auto glass is tempered so they will shatter on impact,that makes them softer,so razor blades scratch but you won't notice it until your inside.
the best thing I found for cleaning windows that works very well is I mix a med.
rubbing compond & a carnuba or butter wax 1/2 & 1/2,this solution
is good for cleaning rubbers, moldings,all your aluminom & chrome. It work very well for interior switches, knobs & all those
hard to clean spots with years of grim,it cleans and shines at the same time.
If you have what looks like acid rain spot on your glass,this solution work good for that,but it dose take some rubbing.
I hope this help.
