DP High Performance Glass Restorer

Yesterday, I applied it to my windows till it hazed and buffed off with a micro fiber. It looked like it was clear and all great but, when I was driving today I saw streaks. What should I do to fix it? I've tried just wiping it off with micro but its taking a while, why is this? Thanks for the help.

Go over it with some Invisible Glass or DP Krystal Vision Glass Cleaner and that should do the trick.

Could someone tell me what the working power of DP Glass restorer is how exactly I should apply it, when applying it by hand? When I feel the product, it has got some hard abrasive like particles in it, but when applying it, it doesn't seem to abrade the dirt/grime of the windows. Also, according to instructions, you should apply a nickle sizes portion on a moist pad (I use the pad, that currently sells as a bonus item with DB glass restorer) and gently rub it in until it dries to a haze. Could someone tell me, what the purpose of this rubbing is (is it only to evenly spread out the product), as it doesn't feel as it is doing any cleaning during this rubbing. When it is dried, it does come off easily and looks clean, but is this the step where the real cleaning takes place?

Please advise. Also, because there is still grime on the window, below the windscreen wiper that doesn't seem to come off, so something in my proces is wrong.

Try going over with a glass cleaner like Krystal Vision or Invisible Glass. Or even try a qd'er.

I didn't have any luck with DP Glass Restorer, it would only remove fresh waterspots for me that any normal qd'er would have done as well (or Invisible Glass etc). I tried it on spots on speed 6 with a 4" cutting pad and it didn't do anything. AIO worked much better for me. We have 5+ vehicles and it didn't do anything to any of there glasses?

Try claying your window first

The easy way out would be to just buy yet another product. However,I bought this product in the first place, because it was highly recommended by Autogeek (so it shouldn´t be a bad product). Therefor, I first would like to know, how it is supposed to work before considering buying something else. The question mainly arises because I don´t see the product work.

Could someone (perhaps someone from Autogeek or DP) tell me how DP Glass Restorer should be applied, and how it works:
1. I found there are small hard particles in the product. are these particles supposed to be in the product, or is an indicator that this is bad batch?
2. Do these particles add to the cleaning?
3. According to the instructions, one should gently rub the product until it dries to a haze. Is this only for having the product applied evenly, or is this also supposed to do some of the cleaning.
4. When removing the dried product, is it just a matter of removing it, or should it also be buffed to a "high gloss", like wax?
