    windshield coating

    what are you guys using to coat your windshield? i have used adams in the past and it was alright but didnt last as long as i was looking for. i have also used Pinnacle black label diamond surface coating and dont really care how it preforms. the beads are pretty small and it makes it hard to see with that type of beading. should i use the pinnacle black label glass coating or would that perform the same? looking for something that will last atleast 6 months as i live in south florida.

    2nd question whats the best way to remove the current coating? ceriglass?

    I use McKee’s 37 glass coating and I’m satisfied with it. Can be a little hard to wipe off if it’s hot/humid but overall a good option.

    Pinnacle Red/Yellow label Glass Coat. The stuff is amazing. I put it on our 10 year old Highlander that is now our daughter's car. It sat outside fall, winter, spring and still sheeted/beaded water like mad when I gave it the first spring wash. Living in the frozen wastelands of North Dakota, it also helps removing ice and frost by making it slightly easier. I have it on my car driving down interstate at 75 during a good rain without using wipers. It's a little pricey but a little goes a long way.

    CarPro Ceriglass is your best bet with rayon pads.

    I use this once a year on my truck. Daily driver kept outside 24/7 and every day I drive 1/4 mile of dirt road until I reach concrete. The coating holds up exceptionally well.

    While ya could go this route, a simple polish light foam cutting/polishing pad will remove coating. Isn't Ceriglas a sorta messy process?

    From what I've heard of the process, I'd probably replace the windshield before I'd indulge in that process to remove scratches windshield coating
