question about ACC & DLA
« on: 08 October 2017, 09:34 »
hi all, i'm considering having the car coated in ceramic. and i've been told they do the windows too wich is fair enough, but i'm slightly concerned if the coating will effect the ACC and the dynamic lights. was just wondering if y'all had any thoughts on this? :)

Be careful getting your windscreen coated. You may suffer with wiper judder.

No it will have no affect at all.

As per mcMaddy I’d suggest not putting any coating  of any kind on your windscreen. There’s not many things more irritating than squeaky juddery smearing wipers and a coating is highly likely to cause that. The wipers work best when the glass is just clean with nothing on it.

Actually - a tip for getting your screen spotless and wipers working smoothly - “Silvo” metal polish. Youll get it in a supermarket for less than a fiver. Very effective.
