Ok, that is great, but of course i have questions ;-)

You write:

1 part nonsudsing household ammonia (clear, no perfumes)
4 parts 50% Isopropyl Alcohol (aka Isopropanol) (clear, no perfumes)
5 parts filtered or distilled water (-not- purified)

for a cleaning solution.
How many % is this ammonia?
Is ethanol also suitable or only IPA?

Is this solution suitable as a repacement for windex (can't find), i mean
for cleaning the parking pad and stuff?


Also, i will have to find those lint-free window wipes. That will be quite
hard.

thanks!
