cleaning rear window

as we all know,the inside bottom of the back window is impossible to reach and clean.if you spray windex on it and it runs down to the bottom of the window and dries its gonna be there everytime you look from the outside in.finally got it off the window today.take a kitchen spatula(you know,pancake flipper)wet and wring out a chamois and put it on the buisness end of the flipper so the flippers in the middle,then use it to clean the bottom of the window and remove all that crap you can see from the outside.best to put the spatula back in the drawer before the wife gets home...

In 8 years I've never been back there. I'm afraid I'de get stuck and not be able
to get out- lol. I have my Daughter go back and clean that window once in awhile.
Spatula sounds like a good idea.

Damn...that's funny...

And finally, some real good advice here: "best to put the spatula back in the drawer before the wife gets home..."

How hot do you keep your skillet? This is some high quality plastic right here, easily handles all your pancake needs, and has a comfort grip handle.
