You can try gg3 or gg4 in a spray bottle or just fairy and water wash over with cloth then use lint free cloth to buff up make sure you use a clean one every time i find that linen sheet cut up is just as good as any scrim

the micro fibre clothes r the best for good results for drying of. use a damp clothe wi gg3/4 to clean it first, any clothe will do for this. then dry to the shine wi a microfibre clothe. make sure u have washed it atleast once b4 usig them

I do leaded lights similar to Mogs

I don't use a spray bottle
I wet a piece of scrim in a bucket of my cleaning solution, I use gg4 but used to do it the same with fairy  and wring it out so that it's damp.
go over the window with the damp cloth, Then with a dry pice of scrim buff the window quickly.
It works for me and they end up perfect.

Ps. just watch out for the artificial lead as once i caught my scrim on it when buffing the window and pulled about 2 inchs of it away from the window.
Luckily it didn't break and was able to stick it back down.
