Somehow my windscreen has suddenly become very greasy when it rains and no amount of washing it with very hot soapy water or using glass cleaner improves it.

Get some cutting compound and a polishing machine and give it a good polish before a clean/polish with alcohol |

Have you tried Autoglym glass polish (inside and outside of windscreen)? I find it very effective. The accumulation of dirt on the inside can be surprising. Maybe check/replace wiper blades too. Only Range Rovers since 1988 |

Wifey has a new oven so it might persuade the glass to keep clean |
