Bristol – September 17, 2026 -- As shorter days, changing weather and busy fall weekends set in, glass cleaner brand Sprayway has teamed up with NASCAR driver Jeb Burton to share five practical tips for keeping vehicles clean and windshields clear.

Burton will compete in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway, where rubber, oil and debris buildup on the track make visibility critical. He applies the same cleaning habits from race day to his personal vehicle.

I use Sprayway because it leaves a streak-free shine, and that same routine works just as well in my everyday vehicle."
