Default Clean the glass?

What do you guys use to clean the glass on your aquariums? I have never needed to clean it as I never touch the glass, but my little cousin came and it looks like he dipped his hand in oil and rubbed it everywjere! :c

I use Windex, just don't let the overspray get in the tank. Maybe spray the paper towel first if your tank isn't covered.

Yeah, I spray the paper towel away from the tank and just wipe it down with windex. Works well on hard water spots also.

Really? I always scrape it off with a razor. I'll definitely keep that in mind.
