What kind of glass cleaner do you guys use for your tanks?

I use RO/DI with any random paper towel on my glass tanks. On my acrylic I'll use microfiber towels.

I've used just about everything to clean tank glass and RO/DI works without any worry about contamination, and it's practically free.
 
I just spray some Windex on the glass and then wipe it off with a paper towel.

You would have to be an idiot to poison your tank with this stuff IMO. Using it safely is not rocket science people. I can't imagine how many of you out there just put your hands in the tank without at least rinsing them off first. It's kind of the same thing. (soaps, perfume etc)

Windex and microfiber all the way, if your worried about overspray just spray it on the microfiber or paper towel first then wipe that on the tank. Although I have found that paper towels tend to leave streaks.
 
Doesnt matter what you use to wipe, it will leave a mark. The key is to use a soft shammy. I use the one that came with my laptop to clean the screen. You can polish it up real nice.
 
I just wipe it down with a paper towel, if something is on it that isn't coming off(like my sons finger prints), I'll just use a drop of tap water. Nothing ever gets in the tank and I've never had an issue keeping it clean
