Probably not the greenest choice, but I use Windex. I actually use Windex for SO many cleaning jobs. I even use it for cleaning my bathroom floors. Works wonders!

cornstarch in water, use cloth to wipe on, use newspaper to polish off

Vinegar and water in a spray bottle. With newspaper instead of paper towels. Doesn't leave streaks.

Did you know Windex is a great bug killer? I have used it at a friends house on the ants on her counter. Works great.

I do the same thing Kristin does. That newpaper wipe is so great. No streaks!!!!! Of course, I did use windex until Ms Alee mentioned vinegar and water. It works super great.

I use either ammonia in water or vinegar in water- whatever I have more of on hand! :D I also put about a quarter of a teaspoon of my biodegradable dish soap in to cut waxy buildup from commercial cleaners.

I use vinegar & water too with glass cleaning cloths that I buy from Home Depot. They last about a year and come 6 to a pack.
