Morning every, I'm currently getting windscreen smear and I'm hoping you lot could help.
Basicly I washed my car on Thursday then done my windscreen like I normally do, soapy water on one of them squeegee then use the window vac to suck to water up.
I then sprayed g6 perfect glass onto half the screen, worked it around then buffed off with a cloth, and this is where I think I've gone wrong, the cloth I used has been used to apply my sonax bsd for about 6-7 months, I have 3 of thease cloths and always only use 2 so I decided to use of to buff the screen as I've been happy with the grip it has on the body
Thease cloths are washed with non bio after every wash and hung to dry. But I'm starting to think that when I've buffed it the cloth hasn't been 100% clear of sonax bsd even though it's been washed , fri sat sun and Monday I was up at 03:30 for work and with it being a damp night when I cleared the windscreen with the wipers it left a film that if I rubbed my finger on the screen you could see, if I turn the fans to the screen the film disappeared quite quickly So it's deffo on the outside. Now I'm on late shift if I use the washers you can see a film behind the wipe that vanishes quite quickly but I'd exspect that with the heat we've been having lately. 26 degree in may
I ran out of perfect glass so havnt been able to wash it with that again although I've tried wiping the blades. Washing the screen with soapy water and some malt vinegar.
I've ordered some new cloths and some g6 to try this weekend. If it stills smears I'll wash it again and fit some new blades. Then if I still smears I have no idea what I'll do
Anyone got any more tips on what I can try. I've heard G4 nano polish is quite good aswell and also to clay bar the screen but ideally I'd like to avoid the bar and leave it till last resort as the screen has a few scratches to start with and I don't want to add more
Any ideally is really appreciated and this is a pic of the stuff I've gone and bought, and sorry for the long boring post, Thanks
