Your recommended routine
What should I buy for a dirty or smeary windscreen?
Begin with routine glass cleaning. Use Clarity only for suitable exterior-glass stains, and add Window Coat only after correct preparation.
Recommended products: Dedicated T2 glass cloths. Optional: Clarity, Window Coat or Window+, Prep, and the coating-specified applicator.
T2 Microfiber Cloth
Application plan
Choose routine cleaning, stain treatment, or optional coating according to the problem. Coating steps depend on the exact version.
- 1
Routine cleaning: cool the glass and remove loose dirt. Apply a suitable automotive glass cleaner to a dedicated T2, wipe the glass and finish with a second clean T2. Use tint-safe instructions for interior glass.
- 2
Optional Clarity treatment: confirm the surface is unfilmed exterior glass and compatible with abrasive treatment. Protect adjacent trim. Wash and dry the glass, then test a small area.
- 3
Use a small amount of Clarity with the soft applicator specified on the label. Work gently on a small dry section. Wipe away residue and complete any rinsing or cleaning specified on the bottle; dry and inspect.
- 4
Optional Window Coat preparation: verify the exact product guide, glass compatibility and curing arrangements. Use the required PPE and ventilation. Finish decontamination, then use Prep on a clean T2 as its label directs to remove oils; wipe residue with a second T2 and allow the glass to become completely dry.
- 5
Apply the Window Coat quantity stated in that version guide to its specified applicator. Spread a thin, even layer over a small section with overlapping passes.
- 6
At the exact guide-specified flash time for the conditions, level excess with one clean T2 and buff with a second T2. Inspect carefully for streaks and haze; glass must be completely clear before driving.
- 7
Keep the glass dry for the guide-specified period. For the retail Window Coat routine, allow at least 24 hours before wiper operation, or longer if the bottle specifies it. Plan installation when the car can stay parked and sheltered.
- 8
Resume washing and other treatments only after the coating guide permits them. Keep wipers working properly and use them whenever driving conditions require.
Final check: Clarity is an abrasive exterior-glass polish. Keep it off mirrors, interior glass, tint and protective films. Polishing may remove an existing glass coating. Window Coat does not replace wipers.
Follow the exact bottle and installer instructions for dilution, curing and surface compatibility.
