I used to detail professionally for over 5 years. We did high end mobile detailing (I stopped so I could go back and finish up my bachelors). There are 2 glass cleaners I prefer over most others. I've used a lot of stuff over the years, and Stoner was one of the best glass cleaners IMO. I've used other cleaners over the years, and stoner was one of the ones which didn't leak a film, didn't streak and cleaned well. Another good glass cleaner is Sprayway Glass Cleaner. It doesn't streak, rips right through dirt and doesn't leave a film like cheap cleaners do. It's also Ammonia free, so it's safe on tint. Those would be the 2 cleaners I recommend. If you can't find Sprayway, I know home depot carries it. Stoner is everywhere (Autozone,Shucks/Kragen/Checkers, etc).
Also, a tip I didn't see listed here. Some people have a hard time telling if streaks or missed spots are on the outside or inside of the windows. A trick to help with this is to wipe the outside glass in one direction (Horizontal) and the inside glass in another (vertical). This way it's easy to tell which side of the glass the streaks are on. If they are horizontal, they are on the outside, if they are vertical, they are on the inside.
Definitely use the 2 microfiber towel system mentioned above when you clean windows, as this will help a lot.
Also, I've never had issues with RainX streaking on a car, as long as I applied it to the windows per the directions exactly (which means wiping it off with a damp cloth). I'd always go over it with a dry cloth after I wiped it with a damp one. It would come out clear with no streaks.
