Is the glass master pro what everyone's using on their windows?

i hate doing windows but this looks like the way to go.
 
Yeah, I got one somewhere. I wish I would remember to use it once in a while.
 
I use it in just about every car I detail, it's easier than contorting your body for the windshield and rear window...

I usually wipe all the heavy gunk off by hand, then give the glass a final wipe again by hand and then use the Glass Master Pro for the final wipe.


We used it last week on this Porsche... the back window is a pain...

I think most here have one and it's indispensable on the inside when getting into those little corners and near the bottom of the windshield...:props:
 
I guess I'll have to use mine again...last time I used it all it did was smear the dirt around.

Hey Kyle,

This system works really well but use only the light blue microfiber cover.

Always use a clean Microfiber Glass Towel otherwise you'll redeposit old dirt back onto the glass.

Clean the inside of the glass as you normally would with a quality glass cleaner like the ones mentioned above. Once the inside of the windshield is clean use the Glass Master Pro to clean deep in the corners and those areas that you're simply not able to reach.

Spray the glass cleaner directly on the cloth. Don't over saturate the pad and cloth then place it in the places you wish to clean wiping back and forth until clean
 
I liked mine while it was in one piece but where the black handle connects to the rest of the piece its just basically styrofoam inside. As I was removing a box from my vehicle the handle was sticking out just a tad and barely snagged on the door frame and broke off. I think its a great idea but could use better build quality.
 
I use 2 of these. One I spray a little Clearcote Quick Shine on and clean interior window. I use yellow for this.

. Then I polish with a dry blue pad. Works great for me!
 
I use mine a lot. Couldn't do without it. Not only do I use it on the inside of the windshield/rear window. I take the plug out of the handle; screw an extended handle into it; drape a mf over it; and dry my MH including all windows.
*on a business card I picked up yesterday the detailer said RV windows (only I'm guessing) for $50. With this tool you can do them standing flatfooted for those that want to make some extra bucks.
 
Picked up the yellow and black plastic one that Invisible Glass puts out from one of the local auto parts store. Looks bout the same as the Glass Master Pro.
They sure make life easy when reaching the furthest inside corners of the windows.
 
I use the glass master that God gave me... my hand. I prefer the ease of turning my mf over without having to "change" it on the handle. Also, the ease that it is always (so far) connected to me.

I do this too^. I have a couple of extensions for different areas of the car and angles.

It is a good idea to cover the extension with foam, in the case you bump an interior piece with it.

I don't care for it much either but it does help on corners. See another thing I do is clean the edges with the tool so my micro fiber doesn't touch the dash and pick up dressing and then smear on the window. I clean windows last.
 
I was about to buy one but was in wallys world picking up some stuff and saw the invisible glass so decided to grab another bottle. Then I saw they had a kit that had a tool just like that one that came with it for cheap. I grabbed that up and have never used the bonnets that come with it. I just wra my glass mf towel around it and go to work. Just used it again this weekend. At first took me a bit to remember I hd it but once I got in the habit.... Love it
 
I'm with Bobby on technique...

I do something similar to the above, that is clean the glass as best as you can BY HAND like you normally would. Get the glass to about 95% of where you want it to be by hand.

Ditto

After you have the glass as clean as you can get it by hand, then spray just a tiny mist of glass cleaner onto the face of the pad and snag the corners or the section of glass closest to the dash where the extreme angle prevents someone like me from getting my hands or even fingers all the way to the edge, and finish giving the glass a final wipe.

Step outside the car and inspect for streaks or smears, if discovered get back inside the car and target the streaks and remove them.

The wrong way
I'm guessing a lot of people will spray the face of the microfiber bonnet on the Glass Master and get it wet with product and then try to clean their glass and this just won't work because you've just limited yourself to one or two bonnets and they'll load up quickly with vinyl fog and other gunk on the glass plus once you get the material wet with product you will for the most part just smear and transfer removed gunk from one section to new areas on the glass.

Remove the majority of any film first by hand and use the Glass Master to put the icing on the cake...
