Best Glass Treatment?

What's your favorite? I just use the Z2 polish on my windshield and it beads for eternity. I use the Z glass polish on the insides and I NEVER get any fogging or "goo" on the inside.

I just got a new windshield the other day and haven't treated it with anything yet. Anyone got a different product for me to try out?

Klasse All In One topped with Zaino Z5 is what I use. Any sealant that is extremely durable will be best...so either Zaino or Klasse (or both like me), which are the most durable sealants AFAIK.

BTW - AIO is an acrylic sealant w/cleaners, and Zaino bonds to it just fine.

Re: Best Glass Treatment?

Sounds like the super "Rain-X" I've been looking for. I usually spray Wax as you dry on the windshield, but after turning on the wipers for a little bit, the small beads become big beads, so obviously its coming off. So I try not to turn them on if I don't have to and just let it fly off the windshield.

If you can use Zaino...hmm I think I'll try the EXP on it. Sounds like you already did Matt, but how does it compare to the others? Shorter life only?

EX-P will work good, but I'm not sure that the beads will be as tight, since EX-P is a sealant with sheeting characteristics. The durability is usually 3-4, sometimes 5 months. Give it a shot and let us know how it works

aye, but it's not rainy season yet. I guess I will have my GF spray the windshield while I wipe it for a few, lol....

Make sure you let the sealant cure for 24 hours before letting it get wet
