How To Clear Up Streaky, Dirty Glass and Restore That Smooth, Clear View - Chemical Guys

- Achieve ultimate streak-free clarity and repel water spots to keep your windows cleaner for longer by following along with today's video. Streak Free Window Cleaners advanced formula even contains static inhibiting agents that help resist dust that is attracted to the surface due to the charge generated by rubbing surface with a towel. Decontaminate the surface with a clay bar to extract embedded grime that would permit a long lasting bond between the surface and a protectant.
Rain, fog, mist, cloudiness, thunderstorms or rain storms can make it difficult to see through windows and windshields. HydroView creates a smooth and slick surface that helps water and contamination rapidly slide off of the glass surface and doesn’t block or obscure your vision. The cutting edge formula creates a durable ceramic shield that causes water to roll up into tight beads and rapidly accelerate off the surface. Provide the most protection with extreme hydrophobic properties using HydroSlick.
For the smoothest finish, refine imperfections with V36 Cutting Polish. V36 contains no fillers or oils, so the results you see are the results you get.

Very interesting...had no idea there was so much stuff u can do to your windshield!
I did the same routine as in the video on our walk in shower glass - looks amazing - thank you Joey
Enjoy your detailing products!
I remember the first time I had a beer😂 jk nice vid. What about cleaning the vape juice off the inside? Any ideas?
New to this channel, love your knowledge and subscribed.
Great video! Enjoy watching these videos to gain more knowledge for my auto detail business. 💯
Glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!!
Joey, I like the HydroView a lot, and I use VSS scratch and swirl as well. Can't tell in the video, but you're buffing out some old fine scratches that naturally happen after years of driving, from the glass as well, correct?
Hi guys, can we see a close-up with light on these glass surfaces. The title of the video is named how to clear up streaky dirty glass . At the end it was just demonstrated how "hydrophobic" the glass got. Aren't there any scratches left behind by the polisher, pads and products?
👍💯🔥 exactly
I regularly use clay, compound, and sealants on glass. All products involved are safe for paint and clears. Since glass is many many times harder, this would not scratch glass(exceptions is if you prep poorly and used a polisher that picked up a rock or something lol).
Smooth un scratched surfaces won't have water stick to it like the coated glass, instead it will bead up. A hydro test is a good indicator of that
🤔 where would the scratches come from ? And if there was already scratches on the window then this video can’t help with that. It’s about cleaning and streak free.
Streaks and film have to do with product and dirt/residue on the surface. If its beading and sheeting off cleanly, you can rest assured the surface is clean (not with streaks and film).
Hi, i used some water spot remover. I kind of used the towel to reapply it, and it made the glass a little fogy.
Do you have anything that can restore it? Thanks
Great effort, watching you do the job and explain the process and showing the products we can buy from your shop.
If may ask for another video where the camera shows the true progression? So we can decide !
Thank you
Thanks so much for your feedback!!
I just do a dense wool pad and cerium oxide and that was more than enough to make water roll off by itself on my Sambar, and my Interceptor.
Clay bar is a great idea. Just wish my windshield on my truck was that easy to clean. Even at 6'2" I cannot reach the center unless I stand in the door and reach.
Working with larger vehicles can be tricky however using a stepladder may be useful.
@@ChemicalGuysI have a step ladder and even though I am 5ft 11inches tall with a 34 inch sleeve I cannot reach portion of my hood, roof, and windshield of my 2024 Chevy Trail Boss.
The best way to demonstrate glass polishing would be on an old windshield removed from a salvage car. You could light it well from the inside and outside to really show the effectiveness of the process. It's almost impossible to tell how well this is working. Surprised that no windshield polishing videos have figured that out.
what do you use to remove acid rain on glass?
Would it be safe to use C4 or P4 instead on glass with that green pad?
Excellent video! Do you have a window video without the electric polisher?
I'll be the same process but with extra elbow grease.
Do you clean the windshield with an IPA solution after polishing or no since it may streak?
What do you use for the interior side?
Do these products fill in any small pitting of the glass surface caused by local sand and dust storms here in Arizona?
Quick question: Does ceramic coating will cause the wiper blade to be shaky/vibrate when being used in light raining condition?
Its will happen
Great video thanks guys. You guys are the Bob Ross of car paint. 🎨
🤩🤩
Hi guys. Not long ago I put your Hydro Slick Wax on my car. I'm happy with final effect, but on my bonnet looks like loosing repellent effect. I don't know I used stronger foam or what? Btw question-can I re-apply this wax again? Or really should wash away with for example fallout and then start again new layer? Tom
Wow I only have to buy 200 dollars of your products to clean my glass? That sounds like a smart move to me. 😂
Great work, Joey. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Happy detailing!
You guys have great products!
Glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!
Love watching your videos. You guys are awesome.
Thanks so much for being part of the Chemical Guys family!
Windshield glass nowadays is softer than 30-40 yrs ago so in the bright sunlight micro chips show up much more now. I wonder if going through these steps help to address the issue.
Joey, great presentation.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Will this mess up my windshield on my 2022 Lexus cause it came with a special film on top of the glass
You guys picked a cool car.. but probably the easiest windshield you could do.. I like the video.. I honestly hate glass cleaners.. between using adhesive remover, and glass cleaners.. thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks so much for tuning in!
This was super helpful. Looks like I need a few more CG products to add to the kit. Are these products good for plastic headlights too? I want to protect brand new plastic lights front and back. Thanks
Absolutely!!
Wait is coated supposed to be better?
great video
Happy detailing!
Can you use this process on mirrors?
How do I clean a pile of towels when they all have different products on em and u want nothing on it for the next after the wash. What dial and fabric softener. Or just degreaser etc
I find good results with a strong detergent, warm water, and a couple of capfuls of SuperClean degreaser - that stuff breaks through anything. Adding some Borax can be helpful too. Never use fabric softener - it's filled with oil and leaves residue. It doesn't actually soften fabrics but rather makes them feel softer. Don't use any gentle or delicate detergents or washer settings - you want aggressive. Wash microfiber only with other microfiber, and not other clothes - and I try to wash the towels right away after use when possible because a lot of detailing products harden or cure over time and become harder to remove.
Can you share the make and model of the Gloves you use please?
What kind of car wash is a non ceramic, or I can apply with a sponge.
Can you apply your glass products on tint?
Tint is always applied to the interior of the glass and polishing it exteriorly would not create any more heat than your vehicle sitting outside in the sun.
How do you wash microfiber towels after you use a ceramic coating like Hydro Charge+, Hydro Slick, or Hydro Speed?
They also make a micro fiber wash product that works well
My Method of Doing Laundry
Fabric Clothes- Steam Clean, Extract, Blow Dry (15 mins), Protect
Leather Clothes- Spray Leather Cleaner, Steam Cleaner or a Leather Brush, Wipe It Off, Leather Conditioner, Microfiber Applicator Pads
Towels- Steam Clean, Extract, Blow Dry (15 mins)
1 wash glass with dish soap
2 go over it with vinegar
3 use good quality wax
Job done save money and time
Glasweld has a fantastic glass treatment for residue as well as hard water spots, it's called pro clean, I offer it to my clients with their walk in showers as theres a ton of hard water in my area..
is there any UV protection with the hydro products? I have been using Jet Seal on headlights for the UV protection but id like the ceramic action also. What are my options? Thanks
Hi there! Yes, adding the Hydro Line will resist harsh elements and UV rays using ceramic protection. HydroSlick is an excellent all around choice for repelling these elements and enhancing gloss.
Any ideas on how to safely remove a streak in the glass from a bad wiper?
came here hoping for this answer
Same 😢 any answers
What do you suggest for clarifying the inside rear glass. It has the defroster material on it.
White scrub pad, bottle of water mixed with a little soap and glass cleaner.
Use microfiber towel and squeegee to dry.
Man I love that acty I have and acty street and I actually want to do this same procedure
Happy detailing!!!
hi guys can i to get all 4 products for windshield and can you give me some detail and thank you
Been using your products for a while very happy with results ,when everything is dona properly and cheramic coating applied ,I dont even need to use my vipers when driving on highway ,all water just runs off , btw you have a clay cloath available? Thank you
Hi Roy! Check out our Clay Block for a clay bar alternative.
www.chemicalguys.com/clay-block-surface-cleaner/CLAY_BLOCK.html
your buff towel after the clay bar, I know you were talking to us so probably didn't even know, but you wiped off the clay lube, turned it over to buff dry, flipped the towel back to the clay lube side and wiped again. You then were about to refold the towel to a drier side, but didn't and wiped more clay lube on 😂
Thanks so much for tuning in!
Would the wiper blades judder after the products are applied to the glass ?
Hi there! HydroSlick and HydroView will not cause the wiper blades to chatter.
What if your glass is pitted who this help out make it worse?
Great information and detail thank you....
Glad it was helpful!
Yayyy, i have all 3 products, V36 Hydroslick & Hydroview. Will try 👻✌🏻
Enjoy your detailing products!!
I just got a brand new windshield. Which steps can I skip?
Can I do this on tint?
You guys up for a challenge to try and repair a sand damage windshield?
Do you decontaminate the wiper blades?
Cleaning the wiper blades ? ..the logical answer is yes
First time ,watching,awesome
Hey there, thanks so much for tuning in!
I vape inside my car any way to restore the inside of my glass so it’s not foggy inside?
after the correction, would you apply a water resistor?
Hey there! Yes, apply HydroSlick and/or HydroView to shield the surface.
I may have etched my windshield with your water spot remover gel. Will the polish fix that?
Hey! Yes, machine polishing is the best option for removing stains and blemishes.
OK, so I watched one of your videos and put a coating to protect the windshield. Problem is it leaves streaks. How do I totally strip a windshield and start over?
If you're still looking for a solution, their clean slate should do the trick. Or you can try diluted dawn dish soap
Hello, I plan on having my glass detailed. How long will the surface remain clean?
Detailed glass durability is not long, unless you also use glass coating
Q. Can this process be applied to head lights?
Absolutely!!
How the hell do you guys know to post the info I need exactly when I need it? Who hired you? Am I being watched?
Thanks so much for tuning in!!
Probably 😅
I have had a windwo cleaning bes for 35 years now Jjust get some dawn dish soap really sudsy and you will never leave streaks again
can this be done on exterior house or store front windows?
Is it glass?
We have a lot of that car here in Japan D51 Suzuki carry 4 gear manual isn't?
Hey! This is a Honda Acty 😃
@@ChemicalGuys it should be 80's model then
ONE OF THOSE TRUCKS DRIVE AROUND MY HOOD… WHEN AT SHOW’S.. HE PUTS HIS PARACHUTE ON 😂
That's awesome!!
Will this work on homes and commercial glass?
Absolutely!
Wouldn’t you want have used a iso wash?
Can u guys try on a glass that has watermarks. And do a close up. In this video that glass looks clean even before polishing
Hey! Check out this video.
ua-cam.com/video/QYxvGYd2OtQ/v-deo.htmlsi=Uz7mS77blZPrcOL8
What do you clean the interior windshield with? I’ll always get streaks or a filmy look in the sunlight?
Hey! Use Streak Free Window Cleaner with a Waffle Weave Towel to restore clarity. Prevent streaks by using less product, try spraying the towel.
www.chemicalguys.com/waffle-weave-glass-and-window-microfiber-towel-blue-24-x-16/MIC708.html
F dat. Get some warm water in a bucket with a very few small drops of dawn. Two microfiber cloths. Use the first rag wit the soapy water. Use the second rag to dry.
After cleaning, use car wax. No more haze/fog
Windshield delete
The film/fog comes from the off-gassing of the dash and interior pieces when your car sits in the sun.
Will always happen. Even in old cars.
Just clean it like any normal glass every so often, and try to do it in the shade and when the surface is hot
What about the inside of the windshield? I can NEVER get that clean. There is always residue plus the angles of cars you can't get a buffer in there.
Hey! We will make sure to make a video on this issue yo are having to show you how we do it!
Please compare the glass at night from inside
We will make sure to make a video on that!
5:49 your smoke alarm needs a new battery
😆
Don’t forget to clean the wiper blade
Great tip!
If I have a ceramic coat on my vehicle, will using the clay bar remove any of that?
Hi there! Clay bar will not remove ceramic coatings.
@@ChemicalGuys awesome! Looking at kits now
Need a location in New Jersey
Thanks so much for your suggestion!
What about the other side of the glass inside vehicle ?
Hey! Use Streak Free Glass Cleaner to remove haze and grime from the interior side of the glass.

This man really just said a cool 70 degrees 😂😂😂 I don’t wanna know your hots then! For us 50 degrees is nice. 70 degrees you’re sweating your butt off 😂
😄
70 degrees Farenheit is considered perfect warm temperature. It's not cool or hot at all.
What Honda is this ?
Hey! This is a Honda Acty Truck.
This vato was glitching at 12:15 at 14:10
😆
My wife stated her windshield never looked cleaner. Easy too.
Exterior window cleaning is not that difficult. I have rarely seen any video or products from Chemical Guys for cleaning the windows from inside on tinted glass.
Cleaning windows from inside is as important as cleaning it from outside.
Hope you recommend a product and cleaning procedure.
Hi there! Thanks so much for your feedback. Check out this video.

You guys need to come out with a cordless buffer.
👍#6.7k So I can work on my car anytime and anywhere.
Thanks so much for your feedback!!
12:14 glitch in the matrix
😆😆
Voice crack ? 0:56?😂 sorryy still love vids 💪🏽
😄
he glitched out in the matrix @12:12
😆😆
I'm wondering if it will also work on my glass shower doors?
Absolutely!
Just get Stoner’s, $20 for glass cleaning is ridiculous and unnecessary…
Awesome results❤

Glad you enjoyed the video!!
@@ChemicalGuys I also do enjoy CG products 😉
Every time I do a full detail on my vehicle, it ends up raining the next day 😫
😬
When you make such videos divide screen in half and post the labels of the product u use at the time for few seconds
Thanks so much for your feedback! Be sure to check the video description.
Love the products, but jeez, this should have been a 5 minute video
Are you ready to do this everyday? Only if you park your car outside.
Wdym? First of all, not true. Second, not everyone has a garage or a private property to hide the car inside.
You go outside with your car only when it's sunny, and there are no birds around? Cuz that sounds really rare.
Now tell them the truth..its like first second third and so on until get to the 20th coat it starts to look crappy.. just like painting a door gets to look shabby after a bit..but paint you can take off and start again..your PRODUCT is ceramic it dose not come off..don't delete this let them see it
Can’t even talk smh
3:00 LOL
😃
Can you guys clean my car😭 and post it🥹
😄
