windscreen haze
just wondering if anyone knows how to stop the hazy stuff from building up on the inside of a windscreen? it's a new car and i've used everything to try and stop it but it keeps coming back. i travel a lot of km's, like about 1200km per week and with all the recent hot weather, wonder if it's got anything to do with air con?
cheers

My understanding is it's vapour releasing from the interior plastic, which is partially why it's worse on newer cars.

clean it with Metho, and buff down with a soft paper towel.
Armour all, or the volatiles in plastic are often the cluprit.
once the windscreen is clean, hit it with some rain X for the interior, it makes it alot easier to clean.
I only use the outside stuff on both the outside, and inside, however have heard the other stuff is better for the interior.

To answer your question, yes it is, in part, caused by your aircon. your dash plastics will also be to blame.
you dont need to use chemical to remove it, just a terry toweling cloth is enough to just wipe it off. obviously if you have used chemicals it might not all come off the first couple of times.
i used to be a detailer and this was the best way. another way is to wipe your moist (read wrung out) chamois over the inside and them wipe it dry with the terry towelling cloth. if you carry the cloth in the car, it will only take you a few seconds to wipe it over when it is dirty.
i have done this on all my cars and never had a problem
hope it helps
