How To: Streak-Free Glass Cleaning! – Chemical Guys

alright guys so we're taking the stroll in our parking lot here trying to find a car that we can do a video on and hold the phone I think we may have just found the one so check out this glass here guys right off the bat just by looking at the glass I can tell you for a fact that the owner of this vehicle can I use the proper glass cleaner and/or the proper glass cleaning method in order to achieve streak-free glass so today I want to go and talk about how and what to use to achieve that streak-free glass so that you stay away and don't be the guy that drives around looking like this alright so right now we're gonna go find out whose car this is so we can find our mystery man or woman and bring the car inside so we can clean their glass and get them on their way to that Street free glass and also teach them how to do it at the same time as well so stay tuned for that all right guys we're back we found out the owner and we got his car inside the shop now we can actually take a look at this glass so the first thing I'm looking at is that this does have a layer of grime on the exterior of the glass and it also has a lot of streaking and smearing on the inside of the glass you know you have a lot of runoff like dirt and grime that collects over here you have some water spots towards the bottom under the globe the windshield wiper and you got you know some you got some pollutants on the glass that are causing the glass to not have like that crystal-clear clarity so like I said right now we're gonna go ahead and show you guys how to clean this up the proper way and the effective way without damaging your glass or staining it so like I mentioned we're gonna be using the two towel method to clean the glass today so we're gonna be using our streak-free window cleaner now the reason I'm using this cleaner is because like I was mentioning at the veining of the video this is an ammonia free cleaner so this is gonna be completely safe for any kind of window tint or regular type of glass that we're working on and it does also leave a you know a streak free finish no residue no streaks no fuss just crystal clear glass so to accompany that I'm also gonna be utilizing the two towel method so you see right here I have two towels here now these are our waffle weave towels now these towels work out great because they have the little waffle wood like texture they have all the grooves in towel so much what that means for your glass is that all that dirt and grime that's on there it's gonna go ahead and funnel the dirt and grime and any kind of residue on your glass within these pores on the towel so that you're not there constantly streaking around the same grime that's on there you know as you can imagine when using like a regular microfiber towel with the you know with the regular strands on it the dirt kind of tends to build along of an edge or like a border or the towel and you kind of get that dirt line and that dirt just pretty much streaks all around as you go around your glass so you want to make sure you utilize in the right towels in or it's clean your glass so that you're not struggling whenever you're just trying to clean your glass all right so the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna tackle the exterior the glass on this windshield so what I like to do I like to go ahead and pretty much pull up the windshield wipers you do this because you want to make sure that you clean the entire glass you know don't cut any corners you know nothing looks better or nothing looks worse than having a nice clean glass from the top and then you see all the dirt and grime that gets built up on the bottom you don't want that it looks nasty be professional don't get cornered it looks a lot better when you take the time to clean those areas because as you can imagine not a lot of people you know tend to do it and you know I know you guys looking at me like you know who doesn't clean the entire glass you'd be surprised so the first thing you want to go ahead and do is grab your streak-free glass cleaner now once you have it you want to make sure you have it on the spray setting this does have a stream setting this will shoot more of a like in a direct manner I usually like the spray just because it gives you more of a fine mist so you get a nice coat throughout the glass so you want to go ahead and spray direct them to the glass and you can spray a good amount you know just that you know just seen as the level of grime that's on this glass I just want to make sure I use enough product so that you know I uplift any kind of loose dirt debris grime so that when I go for my wipe all that dirt gets emulsified and it doesn't scratch my glass so I'll set that down right here and then I'm gonna go ahead and grab one towel and a pro tip for you guys is whenever you're cleaning one side of the glass so that you know you have that streak free shine and clarity what you want to do is kind of utilize one motion for cleaning the outside and one for the inside so in this case I'm gonna go ahead and dedicate the vertical motion to clean the outside of the glass now this is going to help me once I go ahead and clean it as you can imagine when you're cleaning your glass you might get a left with some streaks left behind and that's a great way to see where the streaks actually are because if I'm wiping and vertical motions out here and I go inside the glass if I go inside the car and I'm looking out the glass if I see a streak that's going downward I would know that that streak is on the outside as opposed to the inside which I'm gonna go ahead and utilize the horizontal manner so pro tip for you guys just so you guys can go ahead and cheat a streak-free glass grab a separate waffle weave towel and this is great to just follow it up and pick up any excess of the you know the dirt the grime sometimes you get like a heavy grime and you know sometimes it does take a few wipes just go ahead and clean it up but just like that I don't know if you guys can see right here I just clean the glass but if you come closely you'll still see the grime and that's on the inside so I know for a fact that that grime it's all that streakiness from the inside of the glass as opposed the outside the glass that I just cleaned up because if you feel it it's clean you know if I go like this you see how that dirt and grime right there if I try to rub it with my fingers it's not gonna go anywhere because that's on the inside of the glass all right so now that we're done with that I'm gonna go ahead and proceed to clean the opposite side of the windshield here and then I'll go on the inside of the car so that you guys can see how to clean the inside of the glass using that horizontal manner [Music] alright guys so now we're inside the car as you guys can see the streaking on the inside that's still on there you still see all those streaks all that grime you know like I said most likely the owner of this vehicle he you know used the strong glass cleaner something I had ammonia or something that was a little too strong for the sensitive glass that he had on here so like I said if you do that if you don't use a proper technique if you wipe and you just pretty much spray the product and wipe it crazy and you know you don't care for you know the details of wiping it down afterwards with a dry microfiber towel or a clean microfiber towel you're gonna run into this problem of getting this streak especially if there's still like a contaminant that's on there you know also the glass thing that they may have used may have not been strong enough to go ahead and pretty much break down whatever grind I was sitting on there so all of these can be factors for you know you know a streaky glass a hazy glass you know it doesn't matter what it is but like I said if you're using the right products and the right methods then you'll go ahead and achieve that streak-free glass so now I'm gonna go to get the streak free and I'm going to show you guys how to clean the inside of the glass using these products so I had my cameraman actually go outside the glass just because you see a huge difference on the inside I wanted to see if you can see a huge different on the outside you guys you know be the judge of that let me know how you guys think of the results that you guys saw just from one single pass like I said are we using as a streak-free glass cleaner and our waffle weave towels I'm gonna go to proceed on cleaning the rest of this side of the windshield so that you guys can see that perfect streak free shine and clarity of this glass stay tuned to the results [Music] alright guys so we're done as you guys saw very easy you know when you have the right tools and you have the right method cleaning glass can be a breeze you know so if you're struggling with glass I highly recommend you try out these you know these products streak-free glass cleaner and the two towel method using the two waffle towels I don't know if I did mention this but I did use two different ones that's just because for one of them I used to go ahead and wipe and the second one like I said I used to go and follow up and the kind of excess grime or you know residue left behind all right guys you know this video has been all fun and games but you know the reality of is if the car is
