Default Window tint questions

I want to clean my windows from the inside. I have the window cleaner that is safe for window tints, but what can I wipe it with? Would newspaper scratch the tint ?

Some thing I've also woundered, can I turn on my rear window defroster? They did cut the tint so that it's not touching the heat strips, but would it heat the window up enough that the tint slides around or gets ruined ?

windex FTL, ive been to a few tint places and they have all said never use windex on tinted windows. my dad had a car tinted like 13 years ago and he was even told that then. you can buy special cleaner that is made not to harm tint.

my tint guy said never use anything with ammonia (windex) but that some warm soapy water will work just as well
