Posts: 423 Thanks: 3 Trader Rating: 0 | Re: Cleaning windscreen I go through a car wash when they are dirty and use the packets of wipes and buff them about twice a year. Hoover the car every year if its lucky. But then I really don't give a flying figgot and haven't run anyone over yet

Posts: 3,028 Thanks: 18 Trader Rating: 1 | Re: Cleaning windscreen @Andy Monty right okay. So once the G1 coats are applied (supposed to last a thousands of miles) how would you advise cleaning the windows thereafter, using g4, or just a normal glass cleaner such as autoglym stuff? Also, do you know what the guy is applying it with?
