Hey everyone, just wanted to make sure I have everything together for what I'm about to do. That's right, I'm going to polish my windshield (my back hurts just thinking about it!)
My 2007 Volvo S40's windshield has become increasingly worse since I purchased it. I tried to do the insurance glass replacement and they wouldn't budge because of the state I live in. I've tried M105 with an orange pad, the glass laughed in my face.
I'm hoping you guys can critique/answer my questions highlighted in red. Thank you!
This time, I'm planning my attack with the following products/procedure:
1. Clean glass w/ invisible glass and microfiber
2. Clay w/ an aggressive? clay and use either invisible glass or spay detailer as lube
3. Tape off around windshield and use a dropcloth or something to cover up the car.
4. Get out my ceriglass/ rayon pad and PC.
5. Test spot on PASSENGER side corner
6. Assuming all goes well, proceed in small sections using an atomizer mister to keep it "wet". Overlapping passes/ lots of pressure/ highest speed until my arms go numb or I need more beer.
7. Periodically check my progress by wiping off the ceriglass?
8. After I'm done (assuming this will take a few hours), I'll need to seal/protect the glass. What's the best product for this?
9. REPLACE MY WIPERS
10. Wash my car
11. See when I'm driving at night.
I'll be sure to do a little write up when I'm done!
