    Windshield Polishing.

    Ok, I know Mike P says you can use any polishing product for paint on glass. I get that.

    I've always kept my windshield clean. (gets washed, glass cleaner, WW towels, etc). But now I find it's not taking to the regular cleaning quite as good. (A big tell-tale is the morning dew "wiper pattern streak")

    Anyway, what polishes do you guys use on glass? Any AIO's?

    Ceriglass with a rayon pad. Coat it and you will be good to go for months.

    I use HD CUT on glass sometimes. UC once in a while. My preferred choice is the M37 Glass restoration polish.

    I use KAIO on side and rear glass all the time. The chemical cleaners work well on glass minor removing water spots that have not etched. Then I top it with something like Reload, C2v3 or Cure.

    I just used that for the first time on a car, did a 50/50 of the vehicles glass, and panoramic top. The difference was very clear.

    I use Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish, with a CarPro Rayon Glass Polishing Pad, then Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Glass Coating. Then on the inside McKee’s 37 20/20 Cockpit Glass Cleaner every so often, glass is crystal clear!

    I've used D151 on a maroon cutting pad on several windshields and have had more that acceptable results.

    I've found that S100 (or its higher
    $$ cousin P21S) Polishing Soap is
    usually more than adequate to take
    care of windshields in the "condition"
    you have described.

    If not...I'll go with Poorboy's World
    Professional Polish.

    Or unclear depending on which side you looked through.

    Re: Windshield Polishing.

    First I wash the car as normal (2 bucket method), then I use Pinnacle GlassWork Water Spot Remover with my PC and a white pad. Then I follow up with Pinnacle GlassCoat Window Sealant with Rain Repellent. This combination works extremely well. The water just falls right off the glass. This is my go to now for glass care.
