Cleaning light weight Girilla Glass?

It's glass... I use Iso 50/50 mix on my windows. There's no oiliophobic coating on this stuff, so I presume with confidence that it should work fine.

if you use a glass cleaner made from 4 parts Andean glacier water, 1 part denatured alcohol distilled from Siberian potatoes and harvested Sonoma coast fog, and a cloth made from Peruvian alpacas... you should be fine. If you can get your hands on some Oud (Agarwood), burn it and condense the smoke to a liquid form for an added protective measure, and pleasing scent.
And if you can't find any of those things, there is always Windex and an old T-shirt.

It depends on your astrological sign. I’m a Gemini, so Andean glacier water is what I go with. As for Sonoma coast fog, Hangar One offers a vodka made from harvested fog and if I use it to clean my glass I can mix a perfect martini at the same time. Some would call this laziness, I call it efficiency. I’m willing to risk the car for the sake of a good martini... one must have the proper priorities.
Is it OK to use the aftermarket Andean glacier water? The genuine Porsche Andean glacier water is $1.00 more and I can’t justify the cost and besides it’s probably the same stuff with the Porsche name on it. My friend who’s a Porsche expert says only use Stuttgart lake fog NEVER Sonoma coast fog. The car will not run right.

Wow. Can’t believe all the bad advice being given in this thread.
It’s intuitively obvious to even the most casual of observers that Andean glacier water is completely inappropriate for use in cleaning Gorilla glass. It’s really not even debatable.
Of course the only true source of appropriate cleaning agent for Gorilla glass is made mostly from freshwater springs in one of two places on the planet. If the Gorilla glass is going to spend most of its time at low altitudes, then the eastern Republic of Congo is most appropriate. If we’re talking higher altitudes, then there’s no place better than the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in Uganda.
The other necessary ingredient is liquid extract of Central African banana. Nine parts aforementioned water. One part liquid banana extract.
There is no substitute.

banana? I included Agarwood in an earlier reply and everyone knows that Agarwood when smoked and condensed is a suitable substitute for banana. C’mon man, it’s so elementary. I don’t dispute your guidance on freshwater springs... but you would also know that Andean glacier water when used at higher ratios than freshwater springs yields the same therapeutic effect on glass.

I admit that smoked and condensed Agarwood can be used in a pinch. Although it is widely known that the process for producing liquid extract of banana is inherently less risky than smoking Agarwood. Which drives down the cost for the consumer.
As for Andean glacier water, I am holding firm to my convictions. It would be far more appropriate for use with Llama glass. Or perhaps Guanaco glass.

Too much good advice here in my thread. I was going to try some papaya juice but ended up giving the Carrera T it’s first bath today. Turns out the Stoners glass cleaner works wonderful on Gorilla glass. The gorilla’s were pounding their chests after seeing the streak free clarity.
