Cleaning inside the rear window

Anyone found a fool proof way of properly cleaning inside of the rear window? Probably helps if one is not very tall. What cleaner do you use?

It's extremely difficult, even if you fold the rear seatbacks down. I use Invisible Glass on all of my windows, but access to that rear windscreen is awful. The angle of the glass is too steep to get your hands down to the last few inches at the bottom.

This is a task on my "todo" list as well. Maybe even today. Not looking forward to it! (Cabriolet)

No. One needs to be able to perform contortions and reverse look-ups.

I use Invisible Glass with a microfiber and then second wipe with a clean one. The cleaner doesn't matter but it helps if it does not streak necessitating a redo!

I use this tool to clean hard-to-reach places on my front and rear glass, Highly recommended.

Looks like a good option but ridiculously expensive in Canada for some reason. It is selling for over C$40 everywhere!!! WTF.

I stop mine at a easy position when it flips up to clean (and remove a dealer sticker)
