Product description:
Dupont™ Sontara brand aerospace wipes provide cheap protection for those expensive aircraft windshields. Specifically designed for aviation manufacturing and maintenance, these wipes are made of a unique blend of fibers manufactured in a process that creates a low-linting fabric resistant to snagging and fraying. Since many scratches are caused by grit and dirt already on the window, not the wipe this product features apertures that help pick up and remove dirt effectively, and yet are softer than most conventional wipes. Sontara window wipes are exceptionally clean and contain no added chemicals or binders. Measure 12" x 12". These versatile wipes can be used on cockpit transparencies, passenger windows (both interior and exterior surfaces) and other acrylic, polycarbonate or glass surfaces on board the aircraft. We think you’ll agree that these wipes are tough on dirt, but soft on those expensive windows and other sensitive surfaces. Put them to work for you. 25 wipes per pack.

The wipes are nice and soft and thick. One wipe is more than enough for the window. I cut them in half and the half that I used was more than enough to clean the windshield.

Pros
Great product! Compact enough for my flight bag. I'm a student - This saves me the round trip walk across the field to the shed where in many cases there are no more wipes or there's one that's been used what looks like 50 times! This way I can get going on my pre-flight right away. If you rent planes or take lessons you should have a pack of these in our flight bag. A great companion to this product is the miniature can of window cleaner I believe is also sold on this site.
