How To: Streak-Free Glass Cleaning! - Chemical Guys

Streak Free leaves no streaks, spots, or stains and truly makes your glass disappear. The 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. Streak Free helps that dissipate the charge so once clean, your glass stays that way for as long possible. Use the Red silk-edged towel to clean and dry the inside of windows, and the use the Blue silk-edged towel for streak-free results on all exterior windows and glass. For an all-around workhorse towel, go with the Blue microfiber stitched-edge towel. For large drying jobs, go with the extra-large Blue or Gray Drying Towel, or the Yellow Pocketed Drying Towel for super easy spreading.

Thanks for the Video. So I was at your shop here in West Palm Beach Florida. I have the hydro View. I used regular windex and then Hydro view. So much film and streaking. Made me nuts. Went in to talk to Joe at the shop and he said to NOT use Windex due to the Ammonia that reacts to the Hydro View. I should use the Streak Free instead cause it has NO Ammonia. Did just so. Worked out perfect. Gotta know how and in what order to use your products and Thanks to Joe at the Detail garage in WPB Florida and his advice and Knowledge!

Hey! Glass can be very tricky when it comes to polishing. Glass does not have clear coat, which means you cannot removes scratches or pits from the glass. If it is severely pitted, we recommend replacing the glass. Thanks for watching!

Why did you spray the towel on the inside instead of on the window like you did on the outside?

[@dylanbowen7240]

This is my own thought but I always spray directly on the towel when detailing the inside of the windshield because if I spray the windshield directly you risk spraying your dash which can leave a film or residue on some plastics. Hope that helps!

Hey! Spraying onto the towel will reduce the chances of getting over spray.
