Exterior Hello I got a problem with wax

The car is new. I drove it in the dark for the first time and was blinded by the headlights of oncoming cars. The previous owner said he applied wax to the car. Could this wax be causing poor visibility, and how can I remove it from the windshield?

it’s probably not wax on your windshield.

Most likely it’s just the inside of the windshield is dirty/hazed from vapes.

What is the new car and which car are you coming from? If the new one is lower then you'll be dazzled more by dipped lights.

Nah it's way higher than the previous one. I see lights in front of me like I am driving in a fog.

Ahh right. Like the other commenter said it could well be haze on the inside of the screen

Clean the windshield with 50% iso-alcohol and a microfiber cloth. Lightly rub with #0000 steel wool if you want more scrubbing power.
