[V6-12v] How to get rid of that annoying sheen on the inside ofwindows

[The CyberPoet]

The anti-fog stuff works, but you need to make sure the window is  
110% clean when you apply it, or you are simply layering and that'll  
cause even worse problems with glare/sheen

In the end, there is no substitute for raw manpower (the newpapers do  
most of the work).
