SOFT99 Ultra Glaco Long Lasting Windshield Hydrophobic Coating 70ml

This review is for SOFT99 4146 Ultra Glaco Glass Cleaner, 70 ml. This product is called glass cleaner, but it is not a glass cleaner. It is a hydrophobic barrier, like a Rain-X. I had been using Rain-X for years, and I liked the results. When I ran out of my most recent Rain-X bottle, I decided to see if there was anything out there that outperformed Rain-X. After reading many consumer reviews, professional reviews, and watching results videos, I came across a few that supposedly outperformed Rain-X. Ultra Glaco seemed to have the best results, and it had claims of lasting 6-12 months. The longest I ever got with Rain-X was around four months, and so I ordered the Ultra Glaco. The application of Ultra Glaco was super easy, and it was a lot easier than Rain-X to apply. The application process is clean the glass, apply Ultra Glaco with built-in felt pad, let cure dry for 5-10 minutes (don't let it dry for too long or it can be difficult to wipe off), wipe off, then let cure for 12 hours. Here is the overall process I did for my car windows. I washed the windows with car soap and water using a microfiber towel, then wiped the soap off with a damp microfiber towel, and I dried the windows with a microfiber towel. I then did two cleanings with Invisible Glass Glass Cleaner and a microfiber cloth followed by an application of Invisible Glass Glass Stripper. After this I did an application of SOFT99 4146 Ultra Glaco Glass Cleaner. The overall results were excellent. Water beads right off at a more aggressive rate and a lower wind speed than with Rain-X. My windshield wipers are almost completely stutter free now. There are additional steps that can be done to clean the glass even further. One thing would be to use a high-speed buffer with a foam pad and a glass cleaning compound, such as Glass Stripper. You can also clay bar the glass in the same way you would clay bar the paint. I have seen videos of people using ultra-fine grade #0000 steel wool to clean glass as well, but you would need to be extremely careful that you get the ultra-fine grade, use gloves, and don't touch anything that is not glass. On a side note, the newspaper trick is great for no lint, but then you wind up with ink on your hands and possibly on the car if you aren't careful. A good quality microfiber is the way to go, and yes, there are big differences between microfiber brands out there. I have used some that just don't clean and leave lint, to others that are so effective that they can actually clean just with water.

Used on about 5 or 6 vehicles over the last 2 years. Works great and will use again. Used to applied to just windshields, now using on full car for my college kid and both elder parents. Lasted a year, before I stripped off windshield and reapplied. I now have recently purchased the cleaner / refresher as well and use every other car wash, probably will allow this to make 2 years. Best I found, would recommend.

I bought this to help keep my windows clean, but mostly because my car needed a good water repellant. The product was extremely easy to apply if you follow the directions. The quality of the product is good compared to other brands I've used in the past.

This is best product, after 6 month working on a highway speed.

Tried this because all of the reviews state it is easy to apply and works better than RAINx. What a joke. Yes it was easy to apply, but it DID NOT work. I even applied it twice. I'll go back to the STANDARD repellant - RAINx.

It did NOT remove previous water spots and helped a little with new ones. Application of product is easier than most similar products. Water repellent properties are GREAT on the first rain ,but after starts loosing its strength. To keep the max repellent properties, it has to be applied once a week (depending on your location and weather) I wash my car once a week and i applied after carwash. If price was under $20 I would be buying monthly.

There are alot more expensive treatments trust me i have tried them and for the money this product is the best. This container is more then enough to two cars.

This is a great glass sealer/coating! Super easy to apply and buffs off with little effort. Highly recommend using a glass stripper before applying the glaco sealer for the ultimate clear, hydrophobic windshield/glass.

I have tried it in my back windshield, after having cleaning and drying it. Follow exactly the instructions on the product box, it did not work. I can't recommend it

Must admit I was highly dubious about this, almost sure it would not work. But, even after changing wiper blades I was still getting that annoying squeek when in use so I thought it worth a try. It really works, so easy to clean the windscreen now, the water practically drains off and no more annoying squeek when the wiper blades are in use. Colour me impressed. Very easy to apply though after washing the screen I did use a clay bar. Let the screen dry properly then apply, leave for a short while then polish off, brilliant. Can't speak for the longivity, I will update here, as I have only had it on for three or four weeks so far. UPDATE AS PROMISED : Now nearing the end of February and although still OK on my car I think it needs renewing on my wifes. Her car is the one we use mostly as it's an estate and we have had an awful lot of rain since I first applied this and while the side windows are still excellent both the front and the rear screens are not claring anywhere near as well as they did. So thats nearly five months before needing replacing, can't complain at that and I'm not :-)

Ottima marca non facile da trovare sugli scaffali. Ma questo non toglie che sia un ottimo prodotto 😊

parfait pour le temps pluvieux en fin d'année ! s'applique facilement penser a bien nettoyer le pare brise ou vitre avant de l'appliquer et de bien le laisser poser après la magie opère et plus besoin des essuis glace passer les 60 km/h. je recommande

塗布後乾燥すると白くなって、乾いたタオルで、奇麗に拭き取れるので、塗布後の見にくさもなく、大変良いと思います。撥水性能は十分です。
