DO NOT, I mean DO NOT, give this man ANY coffee.

I am a retired Glazier (40Yrs.) I have never found a better glass cleaner than Sprayway glass cleaner. Hands down the best IMO

Invisible glass aerosol and a waffleweave microfiber has NEVER let me down.

When I worked for IBM years ago we used Ethyl Alcohol to clean optical glass used with our Laser system. 99.9% pure and when wiped off with a Lint FREE cloth the glass was spotless. You have the right idea with the alcohol and lint free cloths. Good point!

I never use any "Glass Cleaners" on my glass. Years ago I learned that they leave product behind that will haze up on humid days. I Strip the interior glass the alcohol mix (70/30 Windshield, 50/50 side windows) and only ever maintain it with pure water and a waffle weave towel. If it gets bad I will hit it with the 50/50. I very very rarely have my windshield fog up.

Exterior I use turtle wax ice and shine every other month. It makes them incredibly easy to just wipe down with a damp paper towel to remove bird poo or dusty dirty water spots.

Great info throughout without drawing out every explanation! The video did not feel like it was 7 minutes at all! That is a rarity for educational videos A++! (P.S. You have motivated me to buy more waffle towels, mine are getting old so it is time to send them to the great washing machine in the sky.)

If you have an older car, residue on the interior glass windshield can be a sign that your heater core is on the way out. The coolant will start to escape through a pinhole leak and collect on the inside of the windshield. That is difficult to clean up well and it’ll get messy again as soon as you drive again.

Great tip on the water+rubbing alcohol, I’ll have to try that! Another potential cause of streaks is dirt or grime on the doorframe or the foam seal around the window. I typically roll the window down, clean all of the foam, window frame and the piece at the bottom which acts like an interior wiper blade first, and allow it to dry. If you do all of the window frames in sequence then the first will be dry by the time you’ve cleaned the last one. Then roll the windows up and begin to clean them. This helps prevent dragging residue from the doorframe, sealing foam etc back onto the window as you’re cleaning it.

I've been detailing my cars for 40 years. You have shown me things I never knew.

Great video. It also makes a huge difference how your towels are washed and where/how they’re stored. NEVER use fabric softener sheets when drying towels for detailing work. Also, if you openly store towels in your garage, they will be subjected to humid conditions and end up basically unusable for cleaning glass.

Stoner and Invisible Glass is made right by my Job in Lancaster, PA. They stopped by a few months ago and gave some of us a case of Invisible Glass. Love using it especially since its local

[vcjjj]

Been listening to you for years and detailing for about 7 years. Listening to you I haven't had any complaints on my work, prices or even me so far knock on wood. Love the knowledge and the channel.

[martylarson]

Love the way you get to the point and talk fast with no small talk. I subscribed because of that!

A microfiber intended for glass has worked so much better with invisible glass than any standard microfiber I’ve used.

[richiesemtner]

Finally someone talking about the lint that gets left behind. It’s been driving me crazy. I’ve been using waffle weave towels from chemical guys and even those leave lint behind. I’ll have to try these out. Didn’t even think about using alcohol to cut through the fog. I’ve been using dawn dish soap and water, sometimes magic eraser to make sure all that fog gets cleared and don’t have any streaks.

[jeffcarucci]

Luke, I've been using your 50/50 solution for few yrs now because of your expertise, thank you. Keep up with the great professional work

[devastatn]

Also, newspapers are the ultimate steak free drying "cloth", Great tips. ❤ 💯 👍

[deansamuelson]

I tried this glass cleaner mix today and it works. Heavily soiled outer glass needed a second cleaning, but the result was better than any commercial glass cleaner I've used. Luckily I had the isopropyl alcohol and distilled water on hand, mixed 50/50. In stead of the special towels that was suggested I used blue shop towels...worked for me.

[ihopno]

I knew the humidity affected cleaning, but I had no idea it affected the glass cleaner. Thanks for sharing this!

[stevemiller]

Old remedy that still works., use 30 % vinegar in a spray bottle, use micro towel to spread around then wipe the windows with old newspapers . It collects all the smudges from the windows and leaves a nice finish😅😅

[johnjones]

Good stuff. I've detailed for many years and couldn't figure out why fibers ended up on the glass. Windows have always been my nemesis.
