FYI, Mckees Glass Coating is BOGO over on the McKee’s website right now.

That's a great deal for what it is. Makes me want to dip into it again, but I'm currently using other products and evaluating the 22Ple VG1 product. Have yet to really test it.

I have used PBL Glass, Aquapel, Gyeon View, and RainX awhile ago. PBL Glass is my go to. Easy to apply, and last a long time!

any thoughts on how it compared to McKee's? I sometimes wonder if they don't share products. Could be wrong.

I don't see it. It must be expired now.

CarPro FlybyForte is also straight forward to use. Apply and let it flash off. No need to buff off any residue.

You don't buff any residue with FlybyForte?? I have some I haven't used yet. It would be nice not to buff. How does it work compared to Opti-glass?

Yeah that’s right. No need to buff off FlyByForte. Apply and it flashes off.

Opti-Glass takes a bit of effort to buff off.

Both are good. I can’t comment on how it will perform for real heavy rain since it was another little to no rain season here.

Here’s the instructions for FlyByForte that shows apply and let is flash off. This is why I have been leaning to sticking with it over opti-glass.

Mckee’s is even easier to use than opti-glass.

Optimum does claim rock chip resistance with their coating.

I thought the same until I noticed month after month go by on my wife’s SUV without having to re-apply, while on my car I’m reapplying leftover RainX and Pinnacle Glass Sealant every 4 weeks. Especially on SUV/trucks where it’s harder to reach the center of the windshield, it’s nice to not have to apply and buff off this additional step every month.
