Best Glass Sealant for Rain Repellency
1. Will Soft99 Ultra Glaco cause my windshield wipers to chatter or skip?
No this product is designed to create an ultra smooth surface that typically reduces friction between the rubber blade and the glass. However if you experience chattering it is usually because the glass was not fully decontaminated before the application process. Ensure you use a glass compound to remove old oils and minerals first to provide a perfectly clean surface for the sealant to bond and function correctly for months.
2. Is Soft99 Ultra Glaco safe for use on side mirrors and rear windows?
Yes you can safely apply this coating to all exterior glass surfaces including side mirrors and rear windows and sunroofs. It is particularly effective on side mirrors where wind pressure is lower because the water beads will simply roll off rather than sitting and obscuring your view. This provides a full three hundred sixty degree field of clear vision during heavy rain which is essential for safely changing lanes and parking.
3. How do I fix a hazy finish after applying Soft99 Ultra Glaco?
If you notice a hazy or cloudy finish after application it means the product was not fully buffed off or was applied in too high a humidity. To fix this simply take a clean and slightly damp microfiber towel and wipe the glass firmly followed by a dry cloth to buff the surface to a crystal clear shine. This process removes the excess residue while leaving the bonded protective layer intact on the glass for maximum performance.
4. Can Soft99 Ultra Glaco withstand frequent high pressure car washes?
Yes the chemical bond formed by this sealant is highly resistant to the detergents and high pressure water used in professional car washes. While standard rain repellents might wash away after a few trips to the car wash this ultra version is engineered to stay bonded to the glass for up to one year. Regular maintenance with a pH neutral shampoo will help maintain the hydrophobic properties without damaging the protective shield.
