Question Do use a sealant on your windshield?

Other than Aquapel and RainX, I was wondering if many use a sealant on the windshield...perhaps UPGP, HV7, Reload...etc. Do any create a glare at night? Thanks for any comments.

Re: Do use a sealant on your windshield?

I use Menzerna power lock on all my windows of my vehicles everytime i re seal my car (which is every 3-4 months). Never had any issues with streaking or glares. I did run into streak and glare issues when i use a spray wax on my windshield though, so ive stayed away from that.

How long have you been using Power Lock and how do you like it on a scale from 1-10 (best = 10)? Any issues/shortcomings with it?

Yes I do. Whatever sealant I am using on the car I go ahead and apply to all of the glass. never had a problem.

Since i think around January this year. Longevity is great and the slickness factor is very good. Its the first sealant ive used besides meguiars line of products and i recommend it to anyone looking for a long lasting sealant. Very easy to apply and buffs off easy as well. I even use it as a wheel and glass sealant.

Re: Do use a sealant on your windshield?

I use KAIO to clean-up my windshield and the rest of my glass (does an ok job on watermarks too), seal with Opti-Seal, and top up every now and then with Ultimate Quik Wax.
