Both our cars have a small squeegee with a rubber or similar blade. IIRC they were sold in the middle aisle of a supermarket and intended for use in the shower.
Like GB I also keep a spray bottle of clean water in the car to wash side windows/mirrors when they get splattered on muddy/salty roads.
The RainX stuff is also brilliant for side windows but don't put it anywhere on the front screen that's swept by wipers - it makes smears far worse.
Problem I get at this time of year is condensation inside. Car, sat in the sun all day, warms up like a glasshouse. As soon as sun goes down and temperature drops moisture condenses on the inside. Heat and aircon usually shift it quickly enough but of the car ships water and you get a ton of water on there and it freezes you can be stuck for a while. My old Xantia was like that for a while as rain water was getting into the boot via the tail hatch and soaking the carpet.
Now I work at home I try to crack the windows open during the day so as to let the warm moist aire out.
