I clean my windows pretty much every other day with some Invisible glass before the day starts. Actually I usually do a quick cleanup and detail of my car most mornings. and Yes I have heated water to wash my car in mid winter lol.

I HATE dirty windows. It is one of my biggest pet peeves. The worst part is I drive 50 miles one way to work, and I drive on a road called "The Notch" because it is basically that, a notch cut out of the side of a mountain running along a river. This area NEVER sees sun basically, so the road never dries after rain/snow.. on top of that they use a TON of salt on the road during the winter.. so I can wash my car one day and the next day it looks like I have a fade from red to white on my car. It is extremely frustrating for me!!!

Oh I absolutely HATE dirty windows. Since I have tint all around the car I really hate when people touch the windows and get finger prints all over them. I'm not a nazi about it but there is something about a nice clean window that makes me happy inside.

ehh..

invisible glass is amazing stuff...
but, I usually don't wash my windows until I wash my car,
so... maybe every 2 weeks, or less...depending on the weather...
