Distilled white vinegar
Instead of branded glass cleaner
~$5 a gallon against ~$4 a spray bottle
Dilute acetic acid, which is what most glass sprays are, plus a surfactant and a dye.
Glass streaks because something got left behind on it. Vinegar cuts the mineral film and then evaporates without residue, which is the whole trick, and a gallon cut by half fills a spray bottle many times over. It doubles as a rinse aid in the dishwasher and it takes off soap scum.
It does not disinfect to any standard worth relying on, so it is the wrong product for a board that held raw chicken. Keep it off stone and waxed wood, where the acid does real damage.
