windshield seems speckled, bad glare into the sun
only 30000 mi paint is near perfect but the windshild apears to be sand blasted?
Is there anything that can fill the specks to reduce the imperfections, maybe fhe flatness of the glass causes this more so than other vehicles |
new windshield.
no other way actually works. |
Try taking it back to the dealer... its worth a shot.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

A trick I learned detailing cars years ago is to take some very fine steel wool and your favorite glass cleaner and wipe in vertical motion only. The steel wool is great for taking off bugs and will sometimes smooth minor imperfections in the glass. Just did this to the JK and my 2001 XJ. The XJ was horrible, glare like a mutha. It's better now. Good Luck

FWIW, I use the fine steel wool on mine every so often.
More to remove the really fine stuff that regular cleaning doesnt get. So far, it has worked fine. Also do it before using Rain X on the window. I use a mesh covered sponge then the steel wool to clean the windshield. Hope this helps out. |
the paint must be more durable than the glass, with only 30000 mi mine looks awfull

Well I don't know if it's the same thing, but if you have very small bubbles in your windshield, it's because you are using a glass cleaner with ammonia in it. So make sure you don't use windex with ammonia, or the like, because the ammonia will bubble the laminate in the windshield.

Damn I might have to try this, mine looks horrible and I only have 14K on it. :sad2:

You guys are doing better than me, i have 36k miles (07) and I've been through like 7 winshields. So i guess i don't ever really have to worry about that then lol. Luckily insurance covers it!
