    removing APC streaks on glass?

    Was in Los Aneles Saturday and was able to stop by the Chemical Guys Warehouse/Store. Very friendly people. I suck at remembering names, but the lady working the store was very nice and very helpful. She set me up with some of the Chemical Guys Water Spot Remover. Tried it out today and it...

    Tried the Opti-coat

    Tried the Opti-coat

    Yes I checked for swirls after claying. I couldn't see any, but I will admit that this color along with the heavy flakes is very hard to see swirls. I looked at it multiple ways and couldn't see any so decided it was good enough for me. I'll post some more pics when I do my first post...

    Cheapest decent pressure washer?

    I picked up the 1700 psi 1.4 gpm Greenworks electric pressure washer from Lowes last weekend. Used it twice and really like it. Also picked up the foam attachment from Home Depot mentioned on another thread. Works great. Hopefull the washer will last for a while, we shall see.

    Purchased a new vehicle a couple of weeks ago and seeing that I live in a pretty harsh environment out in the CA desert, I decided to give Opti-coat 2.0 a try. Did a bunch of digging on this forum and the rest of the internet to convince myself and get my courage up! Turns out that it seems to...

    removing APC streaks on glass?

    Thanks for the replies. I have tried some more APC, then glass cleaners and this didn't appear to do anything. I don't have a polisher, so any recommendations on what product to use by hand application? I have seen steel wool mentioned a lot with both good and bad results so am hesitant to...

    removing APC streaks on glass?

    I have long residue streaks on my windows. They look like long water spots. I think they may have been caused by APC when I was prepping the car for an opti coat application. I live in the desert and it was sunny and hot when washing. Anyone have any idea on how to remove them? I've tried...
