How to Use Oil Film Remover?

Removing the oil film layer on the glass surface can also remove ordinary dust layer by layer. Because hot water can provide thermal energy to molecules, and after gaining energy, the molecules move more vigorously, this physical adsorption layer will be washed away. Then clean it. Acetic acid is a weak acid that can decompose most calcium deposits, ultimately cleaning the glass oil film. Then dry it with a cloth. After using this oil film remover, a protective film will form on the glass surface, slowing down the formation of oil film.
When cleaning the windshield, I usually start by rinsing off surface dirt with car wash soap, then wait until the glass is completely dry before applying the oil film remover. Focus on spraying the outside of the front windshield, especially the area frequently covered by the wipers. Use the provided sponge to spread the product evenly in circular motions—this step is crucial to ensure full coverage on every inch of the glass. Don’t rush to rinse; let the solution sit for 5 minutes to fully break down the grease, then thoroughly wash it off with a high-pressure water gun. Avoid working under direct sunlight to prevent water stains. I do this every two months, and it significantly improves visibility during rainy drives, making the wipers glide much smoother.
The operation process is actually very simple: first, clean the car glass thoroughly by wiping it with a wet cloth and then drying it with a dry cloth. Shake the oil film remover well and spray it evenly from about 20 centimeters away from the glass, remembering to wear gloves to protect your hands. Use a clean non-woven cloth to apply the product in circular motions, ensuring complete coverage. Pay special attention to the areas where the wipers rest and the lower half of the glass, as these are hotspots for oil film buildup. Wait for the product to break down the film according to the instructions, usually 3-8 minutes. When rinsing, make sure to use plenty of running water to avoid water stains. Finally, a little tip: after using the oil film remover, apply a layer of glass hydrophobic coating, and you won’t even need to turn on the wipers during light rain.
