Pour an equal amount of mild, non-abrasive dish soap and clean water into a bowl. Stir it gently to combine the cleaning solution and then pour it into a clean spray bottle. Screw on the lid and shake the bottle a little. A mild cleaning solution is more effective than spraying glass cleaner and it's less likely to scratch your tempered glass. Make sure that you spray the entire surface that you want to clean. Letting the solution sit on the glass will let it soak into the dirt, which will make it easier to wash away. It's fine if the solution runs since you'll be wiping it away. However, place a towel at the bottom of the window pane so that the solution will not run down into it. Soak a soft sponge—not an abrasive sponge as this may scratch the glass—in clean water and gently rub it over the glass. Start at the top of your window, panel, or shower door. Rinse out and soak the sponge in clean water several times as you rinse the glass to completely remove the cleaning solution. If you're cleaning a large panel or window, you might need to wash and rinse the glass in sections. This will allow you to clean the glass before water spots dry and form. Extra dirty parts of the window may also need to be rewashed. Take a soft, microfiber or non-abrasive cloth such as a cotton rag and rub it over the clean glass until it's dry. Move the cloth in circles to avoid scratching the glass. Avoid using a plastic squeegee scraper to clean the glass. The plastic scraper can drag microscopic dirt across the glass which will scratch it. If you'd like to make clean up easier or go longer in between cleaning sessions, contact a local window or glass company. You can then hire a professional cleaner to apply a protective glass coating. These can protect the surface of the glass and make it easier to remove dirt or grime. If you apply a protective coating to exterior tempered glass like on a windshield, rainwater will run off of the glass instead of sit on it.

Summary: Prepare a cleaning solution of equal parts dish soap and water in a spray bottle. Spray the cleaning solution onto the glass and let it sit for 10 to 15 seconds. Use a wet sponge to rinse away the cleaning solution. Dry the glass in a circular motion with a microfiber cloth. Get a professional coating for long-lasting protection.

Though the process of obtaining a driving permit is similar in most countries, the laws will be a little bit different everywhere. Make sure you familiarize yourself with the specific requirements for applying and testing for a driving permit where you live. The information in this article will mostly deal with how to get a learner's driving permit in the United States. You can usually find information about laws and licensing where driver testing is administered in your area, or online through the website for the department of motor vehicles that governs your locale. Find a Department of Motor Vehicles office near you where you can go to apply for your permit, pay the necessary fees and take your written driving theory test. Most states have several DMV locations to make getting your permit more convenient. Check online to find the DMV office closest to where you live.  The official website of the DMV has a search feature that maps out where all the offices are in your area. The lines at the DMV can be quite long. Be sure to allow yourself plenty of time when you go in case you have to wait. Before you can take the test to earn your learner's privileges, you'll need to inform the state of your intent to receive your permit. Fill out a permit application with your personal information and return it to the DMV. Once you've taken care of the application process, you'll receive your study materials for the written driving test.  The permit application will ask for basic information, such as your full legal name, date of birth, home address, hair color, eye color, etc. Apply for your learner's permit online to save yourself a trip to the DMV office. The DMV will ask you to supply them with at least two forms of personal ID, one of them being your social security card. This usually means a birth certificate, social security card, passport or other recognized form of photo ID, although many different ID forms are accepted. Providing identification proves that you are who you say you are and confirms that you meet the minimum age requirement to test for your permit.  In most states in the US, you have to be at least 15 years old to get a driving permit. Only a handful of states, including Alaska, Arkansas and North and South Dakota, issues permits to prospective drivers as young as 14.  Bring your original birth certificate or passport and your social security card along in case the DMV in your state doesn't accept photocopies.  You will also need 2 pieces of mail verifying your correct address. You'll be asked to sit for a brief eyesight exam when applying for your learner's permit. The exact nature of the exam will vary, but you might be instructed to read letters of different sizes off a chart or identify gradually smaller shapes and details from a distance. The eye exam will let the DMV officials know that your eyesight is good enough for you to learn to operate a vehicle. If you don't perform satisfactorily on your eye exam, you might have to get corrective eyewear like glasses or contact lenses. A note will be made on your permit that you have to be wearing this eyewear while driving. While at the DMV, go ahead and pay whatever fees are required for testing and certification. There are sometimes separate fees involved for submitting an application, taking an eyesight exam and sitting for the written test. After all fees have been paid, you'll be able to schedule a date and time to take your test and receive your study materials.  Fees, along with testing requirements, may be different for each state. It's not cheap to get your learner's permit. Make an effort to pass your test the first time so you won't have to pay to apply and take it again.

Summary: Study the requirements in your jurisdiction. Locate the DMV headquarters in your area. Submit an application to receive your driving permit. Provide proof of identity. Take an eyesight exam. Pay any associated fees.
