Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

I've had luck with RainX removing spots also. Just applying the regular protectant once or twice and spots were gone before I had a chance to deal with them.

i'm not sure how to tell if they're etched or on the surface. but they look a lot like these

You can always try #2.

UC or #105 arent bad to have around for hand use for random things.

What are the spots like? Definatley on the surface, not etchings?

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

ok. thats what i was thinking. but since it was going to be free, i thought i would ask.

do you think UC would be as effective as M04 for my needs? or would M04 be better? the only reason i ask is because i dont have a DA. so i figure that i will get more use out of UC down the road. M04 will probably sit on my shelf forever once my water spots are removed. (hopefully there wont be a next time ) but i also dont want to buy UC if its not going to work.

I think Fine Cut is in the SwirlX ball park.

#4, UC, #105 would be the stronger ones...

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

a friend of mine has some meguiars fine cut cleaner. that would probably be too soft wouldn't it?

Claying, or any cream cleaner (SwirlX, UC, #4, #105) seems to need followed up with a glass cleaner in my experience.

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

is it a necessity for the swirl-x application? or is it just for cleaning?

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

You would want a glass cleaner after.

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

i think i already know the answer to this question, but should i put anything on my glass over my failed swirl-x attempt? the reason i ask is because early this morning when i went to my truck, there was morning dew/fog all over my truck. but i could see the outline of the circle i applied swirl-x on my side glass. i didn't put anything back on my glass after i wiped the swirl-x off.

I would clay your glass, then go to #4.

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

if it comes down to me having to buy something, i will probably just pick up some MO4 since it's been proven to remove tough water spots on glass

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

Ultimate Compound or M04 should do it.

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

i tried some swirl-x on one of my windows and it didn't work. i'm not sure how it should have been applied on glass, but i put a drop or two on a terry cloth applicator and buffed it in. then immediately removed it. it didn't phase them. any other suggestions? i hate to buy M04 since my windows will probably be the only thing that is used for. but if thats what i need to get them off, thats what i'll do. i only tried swirl-x because thats what i had on hand.

Re: Swirl-X Safe On Glass?

SwirlX would be safe ot try if it is what is on hand.... as mentioned above, you may need stronger.

Can also try clay.
