use a fresh razorblade. no solution required. no soap. no water. a new blade will not scratch the glass.

in that case, i will ask her if i have any car wash related questions! thanks for the avenue of knowlege.
tom, you amaze me. i realize there are different methods, and i dont think i would've been in a job this long, doing the higher end jobs ive done if i knew nothing. belittling me is just rediculous.
