Thumbs up Clay bar for glass

Did the clay bar on my glass today, I'm pretty anal about my glass but WOW did it work, I can actually see chips in my windshield now that I never saw before, it worked for me.

Interesting. Did you follow up with an application of RainX?

l think once he got the dirt off the glass, the chips were twinkling like little diamonds in the sky. I thought glass it harder than the clay and it won't help with pitting, chipping, and cracks.

Clay picks up the tough film that forms on glass over time. I've used it many times and the result is incredible. I've had stuff on my windows that ammonia and steel wool wouldn't remove even with hard scrubbing. The clay bar took it off effortlessly.

Sure. He accomplished seeing how many chips were in his twenty year old windshield.
