Seal your glass for up to 30k miles with Gtechniq G1! - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

CPT_Hoolie · 08-03-2012, 09:20 AM

Just finished sealing my windows with the Gtechniq.

Cleaned the windows with Adam's Glass Cleaner.

Polished with the G4 and an Adam's Flip Pad using the orange side. The G4 works really well. The glass looked fantastic after polishing and buffing. (I made sure to treat the plastics & trim with VRT or equivalent to prevent the polish residue from discoloring, same as any other wax or polish).

The G1 goes on very easily. The only thing: I wish the applicators were a bit bigger -- it takes a lot of small circles using a 1" diameter applicator to cover a windshield. I wonder if a microfiber applicator would make it easier or if the microfiber would soak up too much of the G1.

I concur that there's enough in the 15ml bottle to do 1 large car or SUV. For the Camaro I had enough left over to probably treat my wife's car's windshield (only).

For removal, IPA is definitely the way to go. I dampened a soft microfiber with the IPA and the residue came right off. I didn't even mess with the G2.

Now to wait for it to rain & see how it does.

Good to hear, cannot wait to see your results! (Well read about them!)

Definitely keeping an eye on this product and the rest of the Gtechniq stuff for that matter. Would be nice to use a glass sealer that even lasted a year. 30K would just be a bonus!!

Dirty glass is a pet peeve of mine. I despise cloudy dirty glass. I've pulled over to clean my glass.

I don't recall when the last time I read the constitution was. But I've been on the USS Constitution many times. And I can recite the Preamble from memory

But I don't know what that has to do with glass

Just sell it. Now I could apply it for you but then you would have to pay me too

Todd@Autopia · 09-07-2012, 12:11 PM

Here is a quick update after 2 months (I thought it was 3 when I made the video)

Rangore · 09-07-2012, 12:29 PM

This stuff sounds interesting.

I've been using the same wax on my glass that I do on my car. Just apply it each time I wax.
