What product do you all use to clean your tint?

I plan on detailing my car this weekend and came across a post that said not to use windex on the tinted film because it is alcohol based. For those with tint, what do you all use?

You should use something that is ammonia free, and says it is safe for tinted windows. I have always used Eagle One 20/20 to clean the tint on my vehicles.

Stoner is safe for tints right? At least that is what I have previously used on my other G.

I read the STONER bottle, and it says its non-abbrasive. It also says that its good with "most" aftermarket tints. Well the word MOST is not equal to ALL, so is it safe to use Stoner on tints?

Me and Glex have the same tint, we just mean it's metallic and reflects like mirrow tint when you look straight at the glass. It's also not as dark as a regular tint it's more silver than blackish/blueish.
