    Side Mirror Haze

    Hey there - has anybody else had the problem with mirror haze? it seems like no matter what I do, I can't get rid of the haze. I've used all the "glass" products and various MF towels, but you can still see haze, especially when the sun hits it.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated

    I dont have that problem on mirrors but I do have it on glass. Drives me nuts. It's the biggest detailing problem I have.
    Treat it like it's the only one in the world.

    What are all the glass cleaners you've used?

    One reason for haze could be your just not fully buffing it clear. Or you towel is not clean which may have other products absorbed in the fibers which get left behind on the mirror.

    Re: Side Mirror Haze

    I can tell you that even with sterile towels worthy of an operating room I still get hazing on occasion. .

    This time of year at least, living in a coastal environment, there is haze in the air which im sure contributes to my issue

    You can buff all you want and you will not remove the haze. Your side mirror is a film and needs to be replaced.
