Glass Restorer Application

**jforget1** · 08-04-2006, 09:10 AM

Just got my bottle of DP glass restorer in yesterday and am wondering what is the best method of application. I have a PC 7424, what pad? Speed? and what is the best method people have found for applying with good results?

Sounds simple enough, can't wait to give it a try this weekend, my windshield has a lot of pits and I am hoping this will help.

not sure about the pits........i still have them

but as far as water spots etc .....great..... and it leaves a nice finish, i would suggest you clay the glass first to prepare for the restorer,just a thought...

I've been using thaty stuff like crazy, it works very well, almost to good to believe. I use a yellow oe orange spot buff pad on a corded drill, I've tried a pc and hand, but the drill combo will tear through any water spot no matter how long its been there, just be very careful around plastic or rubber, it will quickly discolor any thats not glass, I usually put some on a mf and just rub like hell around the corners of windows.

Glass Restorer won't really help with pits, usually those are like pock marks on glass, short of replacing the glass I'm nit sure what can work. I know they have those glass kits but never heard a good review on those so....

But Glass Restorer may help to reduce the pits slightly it worked long enough with PC and cutting pad on speed 6. I used it to remove some very slight marring I got from using a #0000 steel wool pad and AIO (only way to get rid of badly etched waterspots). GR seemed to have some kind of abrassive quality b/c it helped.

Then I followed up with Klasse AIO again, all the glass on my suv is still sheeting/beading water like it was done back in April.

I am sure it will help, may not get rid of the bad areas, but I am sure it will improve the look of the windshield, will post once I work on the truck tomorrow.

I used the pad that came with the Glass kit AG has. It worked very well. However, I think I'm going to try using the PC next.

AIO on the glass? Seems like people use that stuff for everything!
