what products do you use and how?
polish?
clay?
spray?
-
use Autoglym Glass Polish when i wash the car
every 4-5 months i'll clay them and apply the Carlack glass sealant kit
if i get bird mess etc on the windows inbetween washes, i give it a quick spray with Autoglym Fast Glass
-
I lick mine :laugh: :grin:

During the winter months, didn't have time or weather to clean my car so I used to just clean the windows.
Because they were so dirty, I soaked all the windows with AG Fast Glass, wipe, repeat.
Then go over them with AG Glass Polish, which is great except it can leave a white powdery residue that I'm not a fan of.

i know what you mean... which is why i stopped using it. i read though that the white powder means you are using too much.

i was thinking about carlack... it was either that or stoner invisible glass... is it worth the pennies?

it is good stuff mate - at certain speeds in the rain you don't need your wipers!! the beading it gives is superb
a little amount lasts for ages too :smiley:

Autoglym Glass Polish followed by Fast Glass. I probably put too much polish on, as I need the fast glass afterwards to remove the traces of polish left behind, but then I like to give the windows a real good buffing!!

i got this on your recommendation Rhys... just put it on... and WOW! glass looks completely invisible when there isn't a reflection on it... so much so it is surreal. poured a bottle of water on after I had finished and it just slid off! :laugh: :laugh:

Nothing wrong with the occasional bought of window lickery :grin:

har har de har har.. try it... you'll see what i mean! normally you can see through it and tell that you're looking through glass... with this stuff you can't tell the glass is there :tongue:

i know this isnt quite on the same level, but i tried 2 car glass products, one is rainx. this stuff is complete sh!te, it smears the glass outside and stops the wipers from working properly, the inside defogging wipes just smear and make the glass foggier? :grin: we did a 50/50
ive also used autoglym glass polish and not a fan, leaves dusty crap everywhere.
i use 1/2 sprays of normal everyday house window cleaner, and buff off with a bit of scrunched up newspaper :smiley: works a treat
-
if you give the inside of your windscreen a really good clean then wax it a few times and thoroughly buff it off your screen will demist quicker. :smiley:
