Re: How best too clean tinted windows?
I like Stoner's Invisi-Glass. Works pretty good. I normally use the heavy duty paper towels from Home Depot (box or roll). They tend to leave a little lint. I am sure a microfiber cloth that you use just for interior windows would be best!

Costco usually sells an alcohol based foam glass cleaner that we use for our tinted windows. I have no idea what the brand name is. I can check tonight when I get home though. Oh, and I just use paper towels.

Stoners (Wal-Mart, etc) and Sprayway #50 are great! I normally use newspapers or mf towel.

Re: How best too clean tinted windows?
I wouldn't use ANY paper towels on window tint, they told me that is why you see so many "cloudy" looking tints on cars, that it happens over time, I just use a soft cotton towel and something like Stoner's or even 20/20, and as far as using ammonia, I used to use it, Windex, never hurt any of my tint, LOL, just didn't do as good a job as Stoner's!

Re: How best too clean tinted windows?
my installer warned me like crazy about ammonia based products, so I'd be cautious even if it worked for others (some tints may react differently).
Stoners invisible glass + newspaper. Great stuff.

Newspaper? I would think that would scratch more than a paper towel. I would only use a soft towel on the window tint. I once used a paper towel to clean something off the hood of a car I had, used it wet, and another to dry, it made a scuff mark on the paint, never again!

Re: How best too clean tinted windows?
newspaper on window/tint, not on paint.
It even says so on the stoners invisible glass bottle. Several years ago friends of mine told me the same thing as well. It has something to do with the way the fibers are... crumpled newspaper.. At worst, try it on a small corner of your tint (if you have some) where it's not as visible.
Works well.
