I use straight vinegar to take it off then finish with Windex.

I tried this but everything got wet. Oh, I live in Oregon.
Seriously, I saw a product posted that's s'posed to cur through this filmy stuff (and VG is much worse). Shoulda woulda coulda made a note of what it was but didn't. With all highly due respect, I don't think Windex is a great product, Whiskey. It doesn't do a bang-up job on my windows. The product mentioned was a glass-only cleaner sold at Lowes or Home Depot as I recall. Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.

I agree. I forgot I live in the desert.
I have tried invisible glass before, with food results. Not on this, though. I don't know what it may do with tint.

Best way I have found to date....
Use windex and paper towel. Use the windex heavy so the first paper towel is pretty wet. Then follow right behind with a DRY paper towel.
Windex will make the VG more liquid and the dry paper towel will suck it up. Just buff well with the dry paper towel and you'll be good for a week or two.

I get that, from time to time I just wash it with windex, comes off a lot easier than cigarette film did
This ^^^ works very well for me too and it's really easy. I find high VG juices condense on windows faster than low VG. Cold also makes it worse.
I've never had tinted windows and would be careful to use something that didn't degrade the tint.

Curses to the OP!
All of this talk ended up with me going outside with a bottle of Simple Green to clean my own windows.
Now a bucket and a Scrub Daddy is involved and the car is in the driveway with all four doors open and getting a good interior clean and vacuum and then off to the carwash.
But heck, this is a perfect indian summer day so I am making the best of it!

Best way I've found to clean glass is 25% vinegar in a bottle of water with a drop or two of dish soap. The real trick is to use crumpled up newspaper. Paper towels streak and smear.
Anything with ammonia will turn tint purple.

You just dont know SailCat. When the sun hits the windshield my windows turns white and can't see out
Well I do *TOO* know ... well, sorta, anyway, I haven't actually been out to the car today as my office is in my home so I goof at VU while I'm sorta s'posed to be managing assets, whatever that is. Anyway, the windshield was in need of some help yesterday or the day before or whenever I actually had to drive somewhere.
Sunshine is not much of a problem in November in these here parts.
Keep it clean!
I hear ya. It's sorta like when I do a couple of paint touch ups in the hall. Invariably ends up with me painting the hallway, kitchen and dining room
I have to clean my car's windows every other day.
Yeah, I bought a new ladder and now the wife wants the house painted, because of the touch-ups. Should not have bought the ladder.I hear ya. It's sorta like when I do a couple of paint touch ups in the hall. Invariably ends up with me painting the hallway, kitchen and dining room
Like the German saying goes, regarding small favors, "you offer the little finger, and they take the whole hand".
i use the dry microfiber towel technique. every few days my side of the windshield gets hazy. i notice it really only happened to me when it gets below 60ish degrees and the colder it gets the faster it hazes

Vape Haze on my windshield is really not an issue for me. The rare issue of rain in Arizona, dust storm (highly possible) and the general debris that the wind kicks up are my window issues. I use the squeegee at the gas station on the inside and outside of the windshield!
The company that did my tint are the guys that told me to use vinegar. You should never use ammonia (this includes all blue colored window cleaners as most of these contain ammonia). http://www.tnttinting.net/care.htm

l;Just make sure your cleaner doesn't have ammonia in it.
I use perfect glass, but have to do it a few times. Also keep wiping till the haze/streaking disappears. Occasionally I also clay bar my window glass...
I am in my truck driving for an hour a day. A lot more in summer..
My window is open 2-3 inches. I last a week before I need to clean again. Windows get hazed on the driver side only.
When I had the 4 door cab truck, it would be good for 2 weeks.
I vape max VG and my wife vapes 50/50. She hardly ever needs to clean her windows.
