Glass Cleaner that Works - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

MOMach1 · 11-27-2002, 07:42 PM

I was getting the GT ready for trade in (very soon I hope) and spent way too much time on the glass. I know about newsprint and have tried some of the cleaners but...

Has anyone found a glass cleaner or polish that really works? No streaks, first time, etc.?

Thanks

Excellent question. The only fact that I've found through glass cleaning is temperature. Regardless of what brand/type glass cleaner, the temperature and sunlight directed upon the car is what makes a difference. I always park my car in the shade to cool the glass before I clean them. Furthermore, my efforts result in minimal streaking.

However, a specific glass cleaner that stands higher over the competition? I've yet to find.

Invisible Glass in an aerosol can, has worked really well for me. This is all I use and the newprint. It cuts through the film pretty good without streaks.

Eagle1 20/20 Glass Cleaner and a 100% cotton towel, works great.

I couldn't find either around here but Invisible Glass had a website with a 3 can package and free cloths so I ordered one.

Just as a side note, the "new paint package" arrived from Mequiar's and I am very pleased, everything was high quality and they threw in lots of samples not mentioned on the web site. Although it's getting a little sad looking at all this stuff but still waiting on the car to use it on
