2015 Civic Windshield interior haze/film

I love my 2015 EX-L Nav but have a complaint about the windshield that I am curious if anyone else is experiencing. I was unable to come up with any keywords in a search of this forum. Yes it is South Florida, and yes it is warm and muggy down here, but the air conditioner is kept on all the time yet I seem to be constantly having to clean the inside windshield. I also scratched the surface with my wrist watch once while cleaning it which made me think that there may be a window tint or film on the inside that is not serving me well. I am not a smoker and the car has never experienced a cigarette. Yet the windows tend to constantly show streaks and a hazy film a day or two after I try to clean it. Anyone have a similar experience?

It's normal and expected, even though it is annoying.

The plastics are outgassing, and that leaves a film on the inside of the glass that needs to be cleaned every so often.

I use 91-95% IPA, & good gas station paper towels to clean the inside of windshield every 2-4 months. Don't attempt in the sun.
