We got both the 8 pack of glass markers and the crayons to try both out. The crayons give a darker, more "durable" color. If you want to color in an area (like a circle for example) use the crayons for certain. If you are only doing letters or lines the markers work just fine. We've found that the markers tended to streak and not give a full fill in when used to color things in.
As for clean up - the markers are a bit easier to clean up since they don't go on as thick - but I prefer windex and then water for streaks (and I tend to get streaks, my mom says she doesn't but I don't think her kids lay it as on as thick as mine do). My recommendation - use a clean (sponge, paper towel, whatever) the first go round, then another clean paper towel for the left over (shouldn't really be any left over color at this point) and streaks.
I have read horror stories in other reviews of staining (you name it - wood, cloth, etc.). So paper towels for clean up it probably the best otherwise towels and sponges will get annoying to replace after a while. I have not had any issues with staining of hands, but I am using it with kids age 8 & 11 who apparently don't like getting their hands dirty or just aren't telling me so I can't speak to cleaning this off of skin.Get more detail about Crayola Washable Window Crayons.
