I also get better results on the inside of glass by spraying on the towel first rather than the glass itself. Don't have to deal with overspray.
I found the Invisible and Sprayway results similar, but Sprayway is more economical.

Windex, which actually does go bad in the bottle after a year or so. But Invisible Glass seems to clean better, leaves less residue, and never goes bad in the aerosol can. With a roll of Bounty paper towels, which are expensive paper towels but also way better than most at absorbing and not smearing.

Trees are a renewable resource. Microfiber? You never know what it was contaminated with, including oily or waxy materials. Or laundered with a fabric softener, which is also a wax.
Mass-produced rolls of paper, which is chlorine bleached, processed in boiling water or steam, packaged in fairly aseptic conditions, is reliably clean every time. So much so that civil defense first aid pamphlets used to recommend using newspaper as a sterile field for delivering newborns and other medical purposes.
Remind me of how they slaughter those baby Naugas to make Naugahyde.
If you want zero impact, leave your glass alone.

Having used many specialty cleaning cloths and materials on a wide variety of expensive optical lenses for many years, I can tell you "paper ain't paper".
I've used Bounty on multi-coated eyeglasses lenses for decades, with never a scratch. I won't use other paper towels, because especially the generic "recycled content" ones often have coarser wood fiber in them, and I have seen some brands destroy coated lenses in one shot.
There's a fairly modern classic western where one cowboy tells another, that while he's in town pick up some "sanitary paper, and make sure there's no damn splinters in it!" Yes, toilet paper has that same problem. It ain't all the same.
Ain't all the same price, either. Sometimes, you get what you pay for.

Papertowels work too...but look at your cluster gauges....if they are scratched up...that is all from using papertowels. You probably wont see such scratches on non-tinted windows....but microfiber towels are the safest, cheapest solution with better results.
