Default AutoGlym super resin polish on windows

I took this advice from a thread on here about misting car windows, so i opened a bottle srp that i hadnt touched yet and tried it on my windows, and all i can say is the windows feel super smooth and i dont think they have ever looked so clean

Why doesnt it say anything about cleaning windows on the bottle?

I often use Autoglym myself but haven't thought about trying the super resin polish on windows. Have used Autoglym's glass polish for a while now and think that is the best way to clean the windows.

iv done this and after a few days you tend to get a slight film on the inside or out, but just my experience.

Well it's got a mild cut in it, so it kinda makes sense.

I have tried pretty much all cleaners for glass and consider the "Brilliant" stuff from polished bliss the best to date.

http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acata...s-cleaner.html

Used with there recommended towel.

AG Super Resin will leave smears that will become more noticable with bright sunlight in my experiance not to mention the extra dust you will need to clean up.

Try claying your windows to remove all contaminants and they will be super smooth

Spot on, its surprising how much crap you can get off with clay.

I do that, then use a decent glass cleaner, then rainx the front screen as well.

I also used to use it on windows but found when you put the window down it would leave a line of dried polish where ever you stopped the window. did make them very clean though!
