I bought the PCCGCWWR just because I bought the glass sealant . I was just expecting another glass cleaner, nothing special. However, I once again was pleasantly surprised with a PBMG product.

The Product:

My Glass MF Towels:

I found this glass cleaner to be superior to other glass cleaners, especially used with the glass sealant. There is one main reason why I found it better than others:

The product has a lot of lubrication to it and doesn't make your towels "grab" like a lot of other glass cleaners. This is the main reason why I hate most glass cleaners and just end up using waterless wash. Once most cleaners start to flash, the glass becomes "grabbier" and its harder to buff the remainder away. With PCCGCWWR your towel glides right across the glass very easily.

Another point about it is, it flashes quickly. It only takes a few passes to clean the glass and you don't need multiple towels like other products often require. Sometimes, with other products, you end up just punshing the glass cleaner back and forth because it just won't dry or flash away - you have to wipe it off the glass. So, the solution is, to go grab more dry towels. This is inconvenient and just a P.I.T.A.

So, if you your looking for a glass cleaner that leaves something behind to repel rain, this is your product. It leaves the glass slick like a waterless wash. I was able to clean all 4 external windows on my BMW with one small glass towel and had no streaks or issues. Also, it was about 50 degrees out - product still flashed.

Will this affect the layer of Pinnacle glass sealant already applied to the windows if you clean with the glass cleaner?
 
Great review....I was planning on trying the Pinnacle Glass Kit....but I got a Diamondite Kit ealier this fall and still have alot of it left....Diamondite seems like a great product.....but I just love the Pinnacle line...:coolgleam:
 
I just received the Pinnacle Glass Kit yesterday. I hope to get a chance to try it out today.
 
Nice review and thanks for the effort.
However, Sprayway at $3.00 is at least a good and likely better that all the expensive brands.

A fool and his money is soon to part.
 
I bought this product as the BOGO was too good of a deal to pass up.

Will be trying it on the interior windows upon arrival next week.

Pinnacle Crystal Clear Glass Cleaner contains a water repellent; it is far more than just a regular glass cleaner. :dblthumb2:
 
I really like the Sprayway Glass Cleaner myself, as well as Stoners Invisible Glass, but the one thing I don't like about either aresol, is when you spray it on a glass panel, there's overspray spattering onto body panels.

If there's the slightest of breezes, this exasperates the problem even more. ( I know Stoners is also available in a non-aresol spray, maybe I'll try that soon?)

But this Pinnacle product, while I've never used it, does sound interesting.
I cannot recall price offhand, but one thing for sure, whatever glass treatment you have on your glass, Aquapel, GTehniq, etc etc etc, your glass is going to get dirty in short time no matter what.

I have no idea of the longevity of this Pinnacle product (which is probably not critical if you use it to clean your glass with), but I do like the idea of a dual purpose product, that as you clean your glass, they are also being treated with a water repellent, and this then might negate the need of seperate repellent products altogether

Thank you for the review. This is one I would like to try myself. Mark
 
The other thing I took note of in your review, is the dreaded dragging, and seems this occurs regardless of any sealant-wax-repellant I've ever used.

This product sure sounds like it makes glass cleaning an easier, less troublesome process. Mark
 
I have 2 more bottles coming. It's on BOGO now until Friday. I plan on keeping a bottle in my car.
