PRODUCT REVIEW: Wolfgang Perfekt Vision glass polish

[Justin at Final Inspection]

This is the 3rd new Wolfgang product I was able to try out.

Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish polishes and restores auto glass windshields and windows. (http://www.autogeek.net/dia-glasswork-restorer.html)

Now I have used other glass polishes in the past. Mainly ones that contain Cerium Oxide. Although they work, they are not very user friendly in my opinion. You have to keep the surface wet and cool in between machine polishing. More often than not it ends up creating a mess.

When Nick told me about this new polish and how it has a engineered abrasive and it being more user friendly which is a big concern of mine(time is money!) I was eager to try it out. My test subject was my Pontiac Grand Prix GT(can be seen in the link below)

This test was nice because after doing the correction work to the paint, the driver side of the car was in the sun a bit and the passenger side was still in the shade. With this I was able to try it at different temperatures.

For this test I used my BOSS G21 with a BOSS orange correcting pad set to speed 5. I dabbed a few nickel sized drops on the pad.

After spreading the product around I began to polish in the same manner I would a painted surface. Using the same cross hatch method after a few section passes the polish began to turn to a haze and then clear.

Now on the passenger side where the glass was a bit cooler the polish worked just as described on the directions. Wipe of was easy and the glass was very smooth. On the driver side where the glass was a bit warmer the polish worked good but as expected was a little tougher to remove completely. To aid I used a spritz of the Wolfgang Perfekt Finish Paint Prep. So I would definitely follow the recommended directions and use this on a cool surface.

This is the pad after completing the polishing. Now mind you prior to this I had washed and nanoskin the glass during the prep stages of my detail. You can see that it really pulled off some embedded contaminates.

Overall I think this is a well thought out product. Using this as a prep before applying Wolfgang Uber Ceramic coating is a great easy combo to get PERFEKT GLASS!

Thanks Mike! I was in shock as well after seeing how dirty the pad was!

Thank you sir. Never tried the DP glass polish but compared to the Ceriglass from Carpro this far more user friendly.

Nice review! Great photos too.

Question - whats the dark spot your pad from?

It sounds like you thoroughly cleaned/ prepped the windshield prior to applying Perfeckt Vision. If there was some left over residue in the mark, perhaps that's what we're seeing spread across the face of your spent pad and not contaminates from your windshield?

Good eye. The mark on the pad is from when I last washed my pads after being spun out in the washing machine I accidentally left them in there over night and one of my other pads backside was pressed up against this one. Might of been some dye from the black backing from the pad?

Yes, same happened with a few of my pads left overnight in a soapy solution but they were pressed a little tight and a couple of them picked up exactly similar stain.

Back to glass polish, Since you intent was to cleanse and polish, but do you think it has the ability to remove viper marks or reduce them ? I have DP glass restorer and if you check its consistency with hand you feel a sand spec or bigger sized abrasive. How is the consistency with WG and do you think with w stiffer pad (LC new gray ) it could remove some viper marks ?
