    Default vinegar used as a glass cleaner

    I am out of Windex and I'm wondering if I can use vinegar mixed with water to use as a glass cleaner. I want something that will really work just as well with no streaks as Windex. Thanks!! Oh - and does it leave a vinegar smell?

    When I was in the army and had KP all we used was vinegar in a quirt bottle watered down about 1/2. I use windex cause I got it on sale with coupon for free.

    Try it!

    Yes it has a vinegar smell, but only briefly. The smells goes away soon and your glass will look great.
