<VV> Windshield Washer Fluid (Now cleanser?)

[Marc Sheridan]

On "Two Guys Garage" a while back they were showing how to use RainX and 
they said to use "Bar Keepers Friend" to clean the windshield first. I'm 
assuming it is a  lot like "Bon Ami"? It is a light powder that goes 
everywhere, but it does seem to clean glass without harm.
