Great video. Had this stuff for a few months now and been putting off using it. Feel a lot more confident about applying it after watching your video. Keep em coming.👌
Great results 👍...glass coatings/Isp's are the one detailing product that actually serve a purpose other than making your car look nice, they actually make driving safer in heavy downpours, so always worth the effort in my opinion!
I think the haziness once you put the wipers on is a nuisance especially when driving at night and oncoming cars it takes a while to see clearly in front of you again. I find the beading very distracting and just prefer to use glass cleaner on the windshield and coat all side and rear windows.
Great video Joe, I’ve tried this and a few others including Carbon Collective but the durability of this is far greater than others, it’s the only one that needs something like G2 to wipe off.
Awesome video. Just done all my glass. For the first time in my life I'm wishing for some rain to go and test it. Had the G5 water repellent previously, that lasted about 18 to 24 months. Was very happy with it, now let's see how this does the job.
Great vid again. Deserves more views. Would like to see the interior protection prosses from gtechniq leather, carpet, dash ect. Their products are unreal.
Thanks for your kind words Tony. Some times I do wonder how TH-cam words. The videos I don't think will do well smash all expectations, and ones like this flop! Who knows! I'll look to do more Gtechniq vids .... Leave it with me
Great video. I have bought a number of their products to use inside and out on my new Puma. I am sure the results will be amazing and less tiresome during application. Just need the weather to improve - cheers
Realy good video. But right at the end when you used the wipers, that haze that is left when the wipers sweep over the glass is precisely why I'm very hesitant to put anything on my windscreen.
Thanks for the video. Not sure you mentioned this, but it needs 3 hours to cure after application and I would not recommend it in winter, best applied in a warm environment, no direct sunlight and no moisture for 3 hours. I do the windscreen with circular motion, then side-side and then up and down. 5 minutes between each coat. It lasts around a year if you do 10k miles pa. I've used it on all my customers cars since it was available. Judder on wiper blades is down to the angle of the blade, not the wiper itself. So just carefully bend the metal arm to tune out any judder. Most cars will need at least 30ml of G1 to do the job properly, especially if they have a sun roof or panoramic glass roof. Still, it's cheap as chips, so no biggie.
Glass polishes usually uses cerium oxide as the abrasive and it's usually suspended in a water based solution, so just water can be used to rehydrate the polish. Also it's generally recommended to use a rayon pad on a polisher with your glass polish while being mindful to not let the window heat up to much and to move to another section to minimize any chance of thermally stressing the glass (water would help here too using an alcohol based solution would cool it off to quickly). I winced when you broke out the steel wool, but one thing you could have done in addition was to take a microfiber towl and something like a plastic putty scraper and using the cleaner push and run the towl in the upper window track to clean anything that was pushed up there.
Hi Johnathon. Yes I have used Rayon pads alot in the past however try to appeal to all where possible. Also the steel wool was a tip from a glass manufacturers so more than happy to use this! Give it a try Joe
Good to see you back dude 👍👍 I’m getting a new car next year and unfortunately I’m a bit of a driveway warrior as I will be wanting to give it a full decontamination a machine polish and protection have you got any recommendations for cutting compounds and protectants bearing in mind the vehicle is a mile motorway airport transfer Muncher so I want something that’s durable and lasting but also easy to maintain on a weekly maintenance wash
For your compound and polish, have a look at Meguiars D300 and M205 easy products that anyone can use and get great results! As for protect. If you can coat your paint or want to use wax. Colinite 845 is the best pound for pound wax! And maybe look at a base coat of menzerna power lock. Hope this helps!
Do you think you could get away with an IPA-water solution instead of G2? And if so, what % do you think would be ideal? I ordered it but only the G1 arrived and I don't wanna wait/pay more. Also, I'm willing to bet that only using an up/down motion during the final step (G2/ISO) would maximize the effectiveness of the coating as its essentially cutting/shaping microscopic valleys through the ceramic coating.
Hey Joe, would suggest coating the glass roof of a Tesla Y with G1 or Crystal Serum Light with exo4 and how many coats if you state G1. Thanks for the advice and excellent video
Hi Dennis. For me I would go for G1. You will only need one coat due to the rood being a low impact area. It wouldn't hurt to have two layers but one is enough! I do love CSL and Exo but G1 on glass for me!
Phenomenal video Joe! Would there be any power washer you would recommend for the average home detailer? I've had Karcher and most recently two Nilfisks and one of them died after not much use.
Thanks for your kind words. I have just made a video on the BigBoi WashR! Check that out. This is a perfect machine if you don't want to spend Kranzle money!
I tried this product last year, it's a bit more durable than other brands I've tried so far, but it's just not good enough to justify the price at which they sell such a miniscule bottle that barely covers 1 full application on a medium-sized car. The 2 years durability they promise isn't realistic if you use your wipers at all. It's nice that you get a kit with the polish, but that tiny bottle of IPA they pretend is something special is a joke. They do a big bottle at a more reasonable price but it's not practical due to the short shelf life.
G1 is crap. Makes your wipers judder and leaves a haze behind after every pass of the wipers - at night that really impairs vision. Before anyone starts talking about the wipers, they're brand new, as is the car and the G1 was applied properly to a brand new, spotless windscreen. Don't waste your money on this rubbish. Now I have the fun task of removing it.
Best video on TH-cam for ceramic glass application. Thanks bro
I will be putting this on my car in a month or so. I purchased the product because of this video. Hello from Houston TX
Love that! Keep me posted.
Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to comment.

Thank you. I'm getting ready to apply mine and needed a refresh on using it.

Wow cracking job on the windscreen.

Is the smart car yours joe what model is it good vlog joe looking forward to more

For sure, im convinced G2 is Gtechniq's version of an IPA
Do you still prefer this glass coating over others? Curious if so, and if that 20,000 miles durability stands true at all
I do still reach for this coating however I am currently thinking about finding something new...
Hey Joe, would suggest coating the glass roof of a Tesla Y with G1 or Crystal Serum Light with exo4 and how many coats if you state G1.

@@JoeHuntley thanks Joe, got on to Nilfisk today and they're sending a replacement but will check that out
@@JoeHuntley do you use the g2 on the side and rear windows too?
They make glass pads for da machines. I think ill try that when I decide to coat my windows.
Yes!
Rayon pads and some Gtechniq G4 or carpro ceri glass!
Hi how much alcohol % for the isopropyl alcohol is OK to help remove residue thanks
Just go for straight IPA or 70/30 IPA to water will be good
Did you keep your car in a garage or left out side after the coating was done as they say don't let rain or water on it fir 12 hrs many thanks
Hi James
I left the car on the drive way, just made sure it would be dry over night.
Thanks for watching
Joe
@@JoeHuntley thank you I done that but the moisture during the night causing the wipers the next day to bounce off the windscreen
Nice video. Thabksn

So G2 is not mandatory if I have isopropanol?
Exactly!
Buffing ceramic coatings off paintwork would be a good one. And I mean a proper coating, not the ag and af ones
I can do that! Not a problem!
Compare car care with India customer.
You will have great audience 🔥🔥🔥
What is that thing , turqoise like a slime ?
Only for windscreens¿
@@weishen5938 Nope. All exterior glass!
The Product Url has changed BTW
Thank you! I will address this now!
Didn't last 6 mos
Shame....
Compare car model in your country with India.
Then you have a bunch of subscribers .

Thanks for your input, however this product works for me and ive only had it judder on one car, I must have applied this to 30+ cars now.
