Ordered 5 liters of it, cause I saw lot's of reviews. The cost was about 40 USD, very good price. It works as good as expected + can be used on TVs, screens, etc. Although I don't know how it can be used on electronics since it's so powerful. Also, smell is a too strong. Like some candies with alcohol. My dad says it smells acetone:) So I only use it on exterior glass. Glad you have a chance to use it in NZ! Thanks guys
Great to see you've discovered Bilt Hamber. Very very popular here in Pomland. Excellent glass cleaner, but DIY rinseless is my go-to for relatively clean glass. Wait til you try Touch-less. Atom mac is also great for preventing rusting rotors during a wash. Cheers guys
I love this stuff! I think I might've found an off-label use for this that works pretty well too... I was prepping my tires to apply Armour Detail Supply Ghost tire sealant, so I did a thorough cleaning and wanted to do a last step with Stoner's Tarminator. I ran out about halfway through and it dawned on me that I've noticed Trace-Less cleans crud off my rubber window seals pretty well. I figured it is probably safe enough for rubber too, since it was designed as an automotive glass cleaner and contact with the rubber while cleaning is inevitable. So I soaked a rag with Trace-Less, sprayed a little on the tire and got to rubbing. Even though I had deep cleaned the tires with a strong dedicated tire cleaner, I pulled off a substantial amount of dirt without really pulling the carbon black out of the tires like Tarminator seems to do. Any residue left on the tire quickly flashed away. BTW...it kinda smells like bubble gum to me. I don't think it is an added fragrance, that seems to just be the scent of the chemicals. Obsessed Garage sells Trace-Less here in the US, with more distributors coming soon (OG is now the sole importer of Bilt Hamber for North America and they will be wholesaling to other retailers).
The smell is polarising.. some like it some don't, it reminds me of a sweet called 'pear drops'. It is amazing stuff, always struggled with cleaning the inside of the windscreen and this stuff does the job. We now use on windows, mirrors and best of all induction hob and oven glass.
Great stuff guys. These videos are very interesting to me considering I’ve never been much of a “clean the glass” kind of guy unless we’re talking interiors. And for interior windows I use only Rinseless Wash and not once have I had even a spec of an issue. For the exterior, when I’m washing the car with my wash mitt or Rinseless Wash, I go over all exterior windows/windshield just like everyone else. So to me, that is me cleaning the windows and then drying them as normal which kinda of humbly confuses me when I see people using glass cleaners. Unless I’m not doing a full detail and someone is asking me to only clean their windows then maybe that is different, and at that point I’m still going to use Rinseless Wash and get fantastic results every time. I say all this because I have used stoners in the past and it worked great, and I have had CarPro Phobic as well as Action Products Glass Cleaner for over a year now and have never reached for either of them considering I only view them as an extra step that I don’t need. In its defense though I have considered pulling them out to try recently so they don’t go to waste. Maybe someone can give me a good reason on why a dedicated glass cleaner is important. Without a doubt though, for what this stuff does it seems to do it very well. Maybe if I bought the best glass cleaner there is I would change my mind. Cheers fellas
Agree with everything covered in the video boys. I also imported a bottle of this 2 months ago along with Touchless snow foam - another game changer in terms of cleaning power. Which retailer did you buy from ?
Trace-less is not easy to use. It will streak if you over apply. You'll be buffing for a whole year to get the streaks out. To me, the glass cleaner smells like pink bubble gum .
Did you watch the video? Its the easiest glass cleaner I've ever used, even if over-applied. That said, just use the right amount and there is no chance of streaks.

Thanks for dropping a comment! We’ve found no issue using this on electronics to-date (laptops, screens, phones etc).
I have a liter on the way from CarZilla! Can't wait, finally a car detailing product that will impress my wife too :)
Keep up the good reviews fellas!
Thanks for the kind comment. I bet you’ll have a gallon ordered after using your 1L for the first time!
Very impressive! Great video.
Appreciate the feedback!

Touch-Less is next on our list to try (that's one we can get our hands on it).

Very interesting use case. We will have to give that a go! Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment.

Such a fantastic product, glad to hear you're enjoying it too!

We purchased this one through AutoBuff in Australia. It was tough to find a retailer with the product in stock in both the 1L and Gallon variants.
The smell is bad, works great
You’re not a fan of the smell? We really enjoy it.

We did not encounter this at all in our testing. I think even a child would have trouble stuffing up an application of Trace-Less. It’s that good!
hahahahahahahahahahah
