    How's the Griot's glass sealant working out for you?

    Today while driving in the rain I'm glad some of the coating was still there.
    I just used the standard 6 inch backing plate that came with the polisher. We still have not driven the car in the rain yet so I haven't been able to judge the coating. I did a rinseless wash yesterday and I did notice water beading on the windshield.

    Polishing glass question

    With two hands on the blade, just give it some twisting pressure. Just a hair is all it takes.
    They’re working fine now... I think I just needed to fully clean the compound residue off the glass.









    But my windshield still isn’t as crystal clear as I’d like it to be... I’m about to use the McKee’s Glass Restorer on the inside of the windshield + the outside one more time.

    I just cleaned the interior of the windshield and noticed it was really grabby like there’s some junk on it.

    It’s been applied to both sides... Letting it haze for a few minutes.

    Re: Polishing glass question

    Ok update, I need some new glass pads.

    I started with Griots.
    Are the CarPro and LC the same?

    Anyone compare Griots glass polish with CarPro Ceriglass?

    A big thanks for having patients and answering my question, it's much appreciated.

    Now the rest is up to me.

    Did M37’s product remove whatever junk was in the inside?

    Yes. The towel now glides over both sides of the windshield smooth as silk. The glass is now in its best possible condition.
