What to Do When Car Glass Can't Be Cleaned Properly?
2 Answers
Here are the methods to deal with unclean car glass: 1. Surface dust: Wipe with a dry cloth, but not too hard to avoid scratching the glass, then clean directly with glass cleaner, and finally wipe with a warm, damp cloth. 2. Spots: If spots on the car glass cannot be wiped off, try applying some toothpaste for unexpected results. 3. Cleaners: Avoid using abrasive cleaners on car glass as such damage can affect the driver's visibility. 4. Glass rust: Glass rust is relatively difficult to remove. If laundry detergent and dish soap don’t work, first wipe with a damp cloth, then use a clean damp cloth dipped in a little alcohol or liquor to scrub the car glass vigorously. This can make the glass shine like new.
I've been driving for twenty years, and dirty windshields are a common issue, but they should never be ignored because blurred vision can easily lead to accidents. The reasons are often due to worn or dirty wiper blades leaving streaks when wiping; oil film on the glass surface, especially when driving frequently in urban areas with more grease; improper cleaning agents, such as using household dish soap that leaves water stains; or incorrect cleaning methods, like not rinsing thoroughly. Solutions: First, replace the wiper blades—don’t skimp on this, check them every six months; choose a dedicated automotive glass cleaner, spray it and wait five minutes to soften the oil film, then wipe clean with a microfiber cloth. Park away from trees and polluted areas when possible, and clean the wipers when washing the car. This way, driving becomes much safer, with clear visibility reducing safety risks.
