  • Too many people are reliant on just regular wipers when they drive in heavy downpour. Glass coatings are super inexpensive these days, and the hydrophobic (water repellant) effect greatly improves visibility and safety. Every car owner needs one -- it's so easy, a child could do it!

    Nice video. 1 comment... You should actually wait for at least 12 to 24 hours without water contact. You apply the product and rins it off directly. That is what makes it work less and not very long. That is what Soft99 says and what they are advising to do.

      @@matthewtong123 lol maybe Soft99 is wrong. 4 months is a good amount of time I think. They've got a lot of labels that says 12 months or 7 months. I doubt a lot of them. 12 months is a lot of time for a wax coating for example. So if we can get 4 to 6 months out of it it is awesome in my opinion. These soft99 products are fairly simple to apply , yet they offer a professional quality and a professional amount of time of your car being protected. I really love this company and its prices. We get a lot for little money. I think it is going to rain in The Netherlands within a few hours from now. Maybe I'll film my car and put it on RUclips. It beats the hell out of the rain I can tell you 🤣

      12 to 24 hours is for fluorine or nanotechnology based glass coating, for these silicone type, no cure time is needed after buffing off.

      The 12 hour curing time only applies to the Glaco Ultra glass coat. He was using the Glaco Roll On Max which requires no curing time. Glaco Ultra last longer

    Thank you from Rome - Italy. One question: before I use the first product does the glass have to be perfectly clean? I washed it with a shampoo but there are some stubborn insect spots.

    • @matthewtong123
      @matthewtong123  Год назад

      The first product (glass compound) should be able to remove stubborn insect spots, so to answer your question, it probably doesn’t have to be 100% clean, since you’re applying the slightly abrasive compound to clean anyway. Hope that helps!

    I wonder if coating the windshield with glaco will have any effect on the wipers (currently using PIAA with natural water repelling effect)? Just curious if the wipers will streak or judder when coming in contact with the glaco silicone

    • @matthewtong123
      @matthewtong123  Год назад
