Windshield cleaning

[Mark IV]

Before you can get the outer glass really "clean", you must remove the road film that most cleaners will not take off. Us a wet towel and "Bon Ami" cleanser, scrub hard and then rinse with cool water. THEN use whatever glass cleaner you like.

Also proper prep for Rain-X or Aquapel.

One item I use to really clean road film, along with good soap is #0000 steel wool. I got this tip a while back.... works great!!

For final clean, micro fiber with Sprayway and Stoner. Each will clean a different film. Then, just keep up with it.

BTW, the 4 ZERO's (not 3, or 2, etc.... ONLY 0000) on the steel wool !!! It will not scratch the class.
