Hello Pan, Can you please tell me if I can use a claybar in my car windshield and also in the plastic front and rear bumper?. I already searched this question a lot but I didn't find any conclusive answer. Much appreciated 👍😉
Thanks for the positive feedback Merchie! Since you subscribed, let me officially welcome you to the Pan TheOrganizer family. My channel is currently one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam, with almost 200,000 subscribers and 20 million views. All that in under 3 years since I started my first video in late April 2016. :) I have been detailing cars for over 21 years and wanted to share my passion and knowledge with my viewers. I mainly do high end new car details, but my viewers once asked me to do an older car so they can see the process. You can watch me detail a 12 year old Toyota Corolla that had never been detailed in this video: th-cam.com/video/7zqovDt7NIU/w-d-xo.html And to get you started on awesome videos, here are a few full car details you should watch: My own brand new 2018 BMW M550i: th-cam.com/video/dsCmJJDP3xo/w-d-xo.html Black BMW M3: th-cam.com/video/OjQavIEiWlM/w-d-xo.html Audi RS3: th-cam.com/video/641mAJfKDLM/w-d-xo.html And you'll find hundreds of detailing tutorials, including my popular tutorial on how to apply ceramic coatings here: th-cam.com/video/byKcYsEyWGk/w-d-xo.html
I really wonder what was wrong with this video for the 116 people who gave it a thumb down! This is a great video Pan, and I think I will apply this on my car. After the ceramic on the paint, this will finish the job. Thank you.
Pan, thanks for the great videos! Couple of questions. 1. How do you know when the coating is starting to wear down and needs to be replaced? 2. What steps do you take to remove the coating when it is time to refresh? 3. As the wiper blades wear, is there a need to reapply to ensure non-chatter? Assuming if you replace your wipers annually, you would apply the coating on the new set?
Hi Paul. Thanks for the kind words about my videos. Here are my answers to your questions: 1. It depends on your consitions and mileage. 6 months to a year seems reasonable. 2. Same way as in this video. 3. Yes you should apply a bit of coating on new blades.
Thank you for the video! It was so helpful!! I stupidly wet-sanded my ceramic coated windshield thinking I could remove a drop of the coating that I didn’t level and I scratched the glass. I followed your steps to polish the glass and it removed all the scratches!
That's awesome Mandy! Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 885,000 subscribers and we have over 113 million views!

@@PanTheOrganizerhello. When using these pads with a DA. How do you wash them afterwards or do you throw away these glass DA pads? Do you throw them in the washing machine?
One of my favorite youtubers to watch. I’ve learned so much from watching your videos and ordered most of the products that you’ve recommended for certain applications. Also I am a huge fan of The Rag Company and will only use micro fibers from them👍🏼
@@PanTheOrganizer I am just an enthusiast that loves to detail my own car. I have really learned a ton on this channel. Quick question, I have a gas-powered 3200 psi 2.5 GPM pressure washer. is that one good to use with the MTM PF22 foam cannon?
Well it was accident really and I'm extremely happy I did because a lot of these other you tube guys just give you part of the solution and a quick fix but not a detail process like yours it is extremely nice to see a person like yourself explain everything .I live in Montreal Quebec Canada very cold here I came from the island of Barbados I'm born there have you visited any Carribean islands if not you should and I'm sure your you tube must be everywhere .Thank you for making such important you tube videos .
I have been waxing my windshield for 30 years. Started doing it after waxing them by accident. Clean them well, wax em and some elbow grease. Done. Works like a charm.
At the end of the video you mention using this technique on boats and airplanes. Boats and airplanes tend to have plexiglass rather than glass windshields. Plexiglass is much more prone to scratching, very sensitive to the heat generated during polishing, and is damaged by chemicals like IPA. Perhaps you could do a video on polishing and protecting plexiglass windshields.
I watch all of your videos Pan and think that they are brilliant. I dont comment on every one so just wanted to say a quick thanks for posting and keep up the good work. Your videos are well shot, very informative and have just the right amount of talking V demonstrating 👍
Thanks! Yeah I had noticed that there weren't many good tutorials on glass polishing and ceramic coatings, so I wanted to do a simple one showing both manual technique and machine polishing and keep it simple for all to understand. :)
Pan TheOrganizer What would you say this difference is between this and a factory coating that a lot of cars come with now? Is the factory coating more durable in nature due to being applied during the actual manufacturing process, like the screens on smartphones?
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. How did you discover my channel by the way? Welcome to my channel.

A friend of mine recommended your channel. Nobody breaks It down like you. You make me feel I can just go out there and do it just like you lol. You simplify things I really respect that
Great video! I love this kind of work on your car. My windows are already 5 years old so I will definitely go for it! I have some experience from applying UNC-R coat a few years back and I loved it. Gtechniq, Carpro and Gyeon are my favorite. I can advise all users to invest in polishing machine like Rupers or Lare. They will pay off and will give you an option to carry out all sort of works around your car always in 100%. Manual polishing is too much unpredictable and will not give you so good results so if you do it every let say 1.5y better to do it in best way with best results! Cheers from Poland!
Thanks Pan for another great tutorial! What a start of the weekend!! I used Gyeon View on my glass. So far very happy with it. A little similar to the kit from Carpro.
Another great video and product recommendation. I purchased the CARPRO CeriGlass to remove some odd scratches from my new MINI JCW Convertible’s windshield. It worked like a charm using just the hand applicator block. Thanks Pan.
Hey pan, I recently polished my glass and followed the steps in the video, and while it did remove the wiper marring, it introduced a load of small swirl like scratches. Just wondering what can be done about this. Thanks
Dude, I've been wondering for the past few weeks if it were possible to polish your windows. Finally got time to sit down and investigate and you have the smoking gun! Will definitely be buying this kit and doing this job soon, Pan! Thank you so much.
You know I likely always have a video on a topic you are interested about. ;) If you would have typed "glass polishing Pan The Organizer", BOOM, you would have easily found this video. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer Yessir. That's my usual mode of operation haha. Pan do you believe there's a downside to using distilled water and rubbing alcohol for a glass cleaner instead of a dedicated glass cleaner? I'm trying to find some research on this topic.
Many people use an IPA solution to clean glass, jury's still out on the appropriate dilution though. 10-15% IPA is a good starting point. Test on an inconspicuous area first if you're cleaning interior glass with tinted film. Most good glass cleaners are already alcohol based, so it takes the guesswork out of having to get the dilution right. I use commercially available quality automotive glass cleaners myself.
@@PanTheOrganizerPan are there any concerns about applying this process to a new windshield? I came across a how to video on another channel and they warned that this is not intended for new windshields and that using CeriGlass could be dangerous. That didn't make any sense to me though. 🤔
@@PanTheOrganizer honestly tho I see some of your videos over and over again. I will ask a personal favor..... I’m barely starting and much of my questions I ask to several people is about the overwhelming amount of chemicals out there to do the same job.... So maybe because of your wide knowledge is if you can make a video tackling this issue for newcomers like myself. Maybe you already have if you have please share the link with me. Oh and by the way I have driven through Canada 8 times from California to Alaska. British Columbia and Yukon are beautiful
Sorry by my concern I mean a video of how to intelligently due purchases for a detailing business so we not just wasting money. In your case you have so much knowledge that I think you can help for someone like me to build a detailing arsenal of products and than expanding as we gain experience to other brands like the ones you review. I have so hard time explaining myself I hope I was clear this time 🙏🏻
Another great tutorial, Pan there’s a reason why your on top for detailing channels. Thank you for saving me time. I do not have to go through the sea of other channels when I know that you will have answers that I am looking for.
Let’s go! 😁🙌🏻 Thanks man. I work hard to produce my videos so it’s nice to see you guys enjoy them. And with 800 videos on my channel so far, and new ones added twice weekly, you will always find what you’re looking for on my channel.
Yet another fantastic video, if I didn’t live in the uk and lived in the same country as you, I would absolutely drive miles upon miles to pay you to detail my car.
I'm also curious if you are using a reload or an Sio2 topper for maintenence or even the elixir? Highly recommended putting reload on wiper blades to reduce chatter also. Found it helps
@@PanTheOrganizer Really? I've had this exact coating on my 2013 Audi Allroad aka the #vancityallroad for few months and I've found it looses it's effectiveness after about a month or so. I have been testing out sio2 on it and of course you get the hydrophobic properties back. I assume this coating is like others if you don't like it or you aren't happy with it you can apc/superclean and or polish it off with the DA?
Glad it was helpful! You'll always find what you are looking for in my collection of 1000 videos, and new ones added twice weekly hehe. If you ever have questions about a topic, just go to the TH-cam search bar, type the topic and add "Pan The Organizer" at the end. For example: "how to polish glass Pan The Organizer" and that would have led you straight to this tutorial. ;)
Hey Pan, Thanks for making all this great content! I'm always glad to see when you put up a new video. Could you do a follow-up video at 6, 12 and 18 months just to show how the product you've applied has been holding up? I tried a previous suggestion from another TH-camr to use a product I already had in my car cleaning bucket. I don't think that option held up very long, probably a few months at best. It was probably a reasonable time and effort to performance ratio, but I'm curious if doing something like your video here will yield better long term results for time, effort and cost. Also curious to see how a hydrophobic ceramic coating holds up to Canadian salted roads during winter. =)
Thanks Thu. In the meantime, you can watch another video I made about a glass sealant that's even easier to apply and will give you 5 to 6 months real world protection. I have been using this for years, including on my own cars. Aquapel. Here's the video: th-cam.com/video/CN-WYF3Nnak/w-d-xo.html
You have great eyes! :). I'm working on the final bits for the full review and presentation video, and am waiting on the green light from Maxshine to release it, as it's not available officially yet. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer I've been eyeing on that since I saw it from your SEMA video.. I can't pull the trigger as I am still waiting for your video. I can't find any decent review about the machine. Happy New Year, Pan!
Pan TheOrganizer wife pulled the trigger for me and got the M21 Pro from Maxshine in Wisconsin. Way smoother and quieter than my GG 6 inch. Can’t wait for spring to use it. They included 4oz samples of a compound and polish as well. Seems like a very quality machine. Going to swap the grease like Brian from Apex detail suggest and be ready for your video and spring cleaning on my two vehicles
I ABSOLUTELY love your channel. I’m a detailer at a car dealership here where I live. Been learning so much from you to do a better job at work so thank you. I haven’t been there even 6 months yet and have already been given a $2/hr raise!! So again thank you!!! Do you ever do giveaways??? I’m currently trying to insulate my garage and make a work area at home so I can work out of my garage as well. Is there any way to contact you? Send fan mail? Etc. again. Thank you so much for all your tips and help

With a DA, a little water enables you to do additional passes. Mike Phillips has an excellent video on taking out scratches. I've removed some significant scratches with Ceri.
Thank you very much for all the information and time invested sir. It does appear that with a "new 2019" formula, the coating process had changed a bit. Even though the directions on CarPro's website still mirror exactly what you did. But the box had a notation on the outside and a card on the inside stating that due to a new formula only 1 coat was necessary if you polish the glass.
My pleasure. I’m pretty much the only big detailing channel over 870,000 subscribers that still replies to TH-cam comments personally, every day as you can see. I spend up to four hours each day just replying to comments. It does get overwhelming at times as I receive thousands of messages and emails daily, but I try to stay close to my audience as much as possible. 👍🏻
This method is still valid for those that need major glass polishing. It was a more professional level approach. If you want something more user friendly, DIY, and if the glass is in decent shape, and doesn't need polishing, you can use a chemical glass stripping compound applied by hand, and then apply a glass coating. See my video on that topic here: th-cam.com/video/usdM-TrT7fg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Fqn-qNuKLzvf6vLU
Pan I love your videos you made me a detailer and now Im making money as a detailer ! I have a request can you make a guide for how choose best polish for any scratch ? All brand have 3step or 5 step polish and its confusing for me that should choose which of them for car scratches. Thanks
Glad i found your video, i never learned this in detailing school. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. With your expertise, how long does it usually takes to polish window from start to finish ?
Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 860,000 subscribers and we have almost 110 million views! I have been detailing for 25 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing. It's impossible to answer your question though, as not everyone uses the same polisher, not everyone has the same polishing experience, not every windshield has the same amount of defects, etc. But perhaps 30 to 60 minutes is a good average for a windshield in decent shape.
1. do i need to clay bar the windows? 2. for uncontrolled environment, like I get a little moist at night and morning. Will that make my work go to waste because you said to keep the car dry for 3 days. by the way thank you for all your videos. keep it up!
Dear Pan, thank you for being such a clear, thorough, and honest, teacher and guide. Watching you videos, I applied carpro skin, flyby forte, cquatrz leather, and more to my car. I did it thoroughly and correctly following your videos. Your channel saved me a lot of money by enabling me to take better care of my car. I also polished and cared for 4 of my family members' cars! Thank you! I have a question: can I apply rainx on top of flyby forte to prolong its life? Best regards Feras
Thanks for the kind words. To answer your question, no don’t apply RainX on top of Forte. Just apply more Forte in a few months if you see performance diminishing.
Pan TheOrganizer , I love working on car finishes so surfing TH-cam looking for info from quality detailers I found your channel. I actually Ceramic Coated my sons RAM with Gtechniq CSL and was inspired to buy that product as a result Chicago Auto Pros ( Jason) and because of watching you apply CQuartz and learning from your video. I’ve actually learned quite a bit. This video has inspired me to purchase your recommend kit and apply it to my wife’s ‘15 R/T Plus Challenger. I really appreciate your replying !!! Thank you sir!
Thanks for this video Pan. Very Informative. What happens if you have no garage or shelter and it happens to rain after the initial 4 hours curing time ? What will happen to the finish ?
Great content. I followed this tutorial perfectly with great results. Glass is cleaner than I’ve ever had. All is good during the day but at night, the rain is beading off but my new wiper blades clean off the rain but there is a haze that is remaining for a second after the wiper passes that reflects oncoming headlights. Brutal and worse than reflection off sheeting water. It seems like the product is doing what you said but wondering if you have experienced the ultra clean and ceramic coated glass but reflective haze after the wiper passes. Hoping you can comment before I mechanically remove to get back to a safe condition or make an adjustment. Thanks!
I never had such issues. What specific glass coating did you apply? Also, make sure you degrease and clean the interior of your windshield to reduce glare and a film like appearance.

Hi Pan, great video as always! I have two questions:- 1. How do I safely remove hard watermarks or spots on the side mirror? I am not sure if cerium oxide is the best option and I fear that it might damage the color of the coating or something. 2. After a snow wash (including washing the windshield using the snow wash shampoo), do I still need to use an ammonia free glass cleaner to clean the windshield? Thanks in advance.
I use to do Wiper scratches in windshields. I must say when using certain compounds on windshields you can go too far and cause distortion in the glass leading to visual problems looking through the glass.
Hi there! I will try polishing my glass this weekend. Just couple of questions:1. What speed with polisher? As normal?-spread low and higher polishing? 2. Can I use not eraser-diluted IPA follow your instructions from car polishing? (if I remember that was 12%) 3. Can I use for last layer ceramic wax? (reason for that is not whole car is prepared yet) 4. clay bar or not? Tom
Maybe you figured it out.. but yes, clay bar after cleaning and before polishing. Use a medium cut compound then a fine polishing compound. Use medium to high speed on the DA. You can do ceramic separate from the body, but remember to be careful with chemicals around it when you’re cleaning the body.
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan, I got a question, can I use mother's california wash & wax on my ceramic coating or will it cause damage to it? It's a PH neutral soap, so I think it's okay?
Great tutorial. Gonna get the CarPro products. Questions: 1. Can i do this for shower glass? 2, What wiper fluid can i use? for example RAIN- X Washer Fluid Additive?
Pan, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have been looking for a howto to remove fine scratches from glass for weeks. During a recent maintenance wash I somehow managed to put a couple of super fine 1 inch scratches in my glass. You can't catch them with your nail and are only visible at night with oncoming traffic headlights. They are right in my line of sight and are driving me nuts. I really hope ceriglass and a glass polishing pad will remove them. I will report back when I get the kit and let people know if the ceriglass was able to remove the scratches. Thanks Again.
Just an update, finally got to try this today. Unfortunately it was not able to complete remove the scratches in my windshield. It did seem to "knock them down" a little, so the glare is not as bad as it was. Might try again when the weather gets nice.
@@PanTheOrganizer actually I've got a bit of an of topic question, regarding the Two Bucket Method; would you think using say 7 washmitts would be a good way to tackle a wash? So starting from top to bottom, each mitt for each panel more or less, but just using 1 bucket with sudsy cash soap. Chuck each mitt ready to be cleaned. I'm just trying to minimise as much water where I can to be fair.
a friend of mine (not a professional) said he tried nano/ceramic coating on the windscreen but said it compromised the windscreen washer function... in other words, when you actually want the water to stick till you wipe the windscreen the (de facto hydrophobic) coating results in you wiping a "dry" glass
@@PanTheOrganizer I am a sceptic after hearing pan pan pan I had no other choice and I must say you and chrisfix are now my go to car channel...great stuff thanks or I am sorry if mentioning chrisfix would cause you views ..I apologize in advance if that happens

Hey mate, Cheers for the video. I was wondering if I can use my normal paint polish and a microfiber pad for the wind shield? Would it damage the glass?
@@PanTheOrganizer Good question. I'm an engineer who was made redundant due to Covid in May. I'm also a car enthusiast with a crazy level of OCD. The first thought after losing my job was to start a detailing business. All I had to do was search "Car Detailing Basics" on youtube and there you were. I believe you were the forth video i watched and loved how you explained everything. I think the first video was from "Chicago Auto Pros" which was interesting but not suitable to learn detailing. It was rather improvised to advertise the business. Unfortunately, there's no much of variety of detailing products in Australia so most of my purchase is online which takes forever to deliver.

Hi there! I have two questions. 1. Should I go for clay bar before polishing? (I guess no, because you didn't say that), 2. What speed with DA polisher? (my have 1-6 scale, I done heavy cut spread in speed 4) Greetings from UK. Thank you again for many videos.

Thanks for the kind words Harith. Since you subscribed to my channel, let me officially welcome you to the Pan The Organizer family! How did you discover my channel by the way? To answer your question, there is no wait time between coats.
Well done write up, griots makes some good glass polish as well on a budget. Also might I recommend starting to wear resporators while working with coatings. Keeps you healthy and stops from breathing in volatile chemicals.
@@Goxus95 Using mostly the same products he mentions in the video (the ceramic coating seems to not be available, so I used another one from the same brand) Glass Cleaner - Invisible Glass ($6) Glass Polish - Carpro Ceriglass ($27) Residue Remover - Carpro Eraser ($23) Ceramic Coating - Carpro CQuarts UK 3.0 ($63) Polisher - Torq ($200, however there are several under $75 on Amazon) Rayon Pads - 2 pack ($21) Towels - $17 Total - $360 New windshield avg cost - $300 - $1500 depending on what you drive. Could end up being less hassle getting a new windshield, but 360 for multiple applications of this technique is great value rather than upwards of 1500 bucks every time your windshield needs to be polished. I’d take the 360 dollar cost all day
Very clear details for a beginner like me. I have ordered the all-in-one package using you link given in the description. Thanks for the link for easy purchase! I have a question now. After 6 months or one year if I decide to do another coating do I need to do everything from Step # 1 or beginning from step # 6?
Glad it was helpful! And yes you would restart the steps. Just like you would for a ceramic coating on paint. For optimal results, you wash, decon, polish, etc.

Hello Pan,
Can you please tell me if I can use a claybar in my car windshield and also in the plastic front and rear bumper?.
I already searched this question a lot but I didn't find any conclusive answer.
Much appreciated 👍😉
You can use a claybar on exterior glass, and on all painted/clear coated surfaces (paint, wheels, painted bumpers, etc).
I am from India. I am searching for a vdio like this. I used to follow your tips from last 2 years. Itz very much helpfull. Thank you
You should detail a really old and bad condition car i think. Would be fun too see.
Found you yesterday and subscribed immediately. Awesome videos.
Thanks for the positive feedback Merchie! Since you subscribed, let me officially welcome you to the Pan TheOrganizer family.
My channel is currently one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam, with almost 200,000 subscribers and 20 million views. All that in under 3 years since I started my first video in late April 2016. :)
I have been detailing cars for over 21 years and wanted to share my passion and knowledge with my viewers. I mainly do high end new car details, but my viewers once asked me to do an older car so they can see the process.
You can watch me detail a 12 year old Toyota Corolla that had never been detailed in this video: th-cam.com/video/7zqovDt7NIU/w-d-xo.html
And to get you started on awesome videos, here are a few full car details you should watch:
My own brand new 2018 BMW M550i: th-cam.com/video/dsCmJJDP3xo/w-d-xo.html
Black BMW M3: th-cam.com/video/OjQavIEiWlM/w-d-xo.html
Audi RS3: th-cam.com/video/641mAJfKDLM/w-d-xo.html
And you'll find hundreds of detailing tutorials, including my popular tutorial on how to apply ceramic coatings here: th-cam.com/video/byKcYsEyWGk/w-d-xo.html
These are my favorites like how much can you restore a vehicle. google not for the faint of heart pt cruiser to see an interior I restored.
@@PanTheOrganizer Paaaaaaaaaaan
LOL
I've done this process completely and wowww...It removed all of wiper scratches...Thanks PAN...Thanks CarPro...
Thanks Ali !!
While searching for videos on how to use CarPro Ceriglass, yours was the only one that showed the final results. Thank you for informative videos.
Thanks!!
Not sure how i ended up watching this, but without a doubt this knowledge has (or it will in time) changed my life
Thanks!
I really wonder what was wrong with this video for the 116 people who gave it a thumb down! This is a great video Pan, and I think I will apply this on my car. After the ceramic on the paint, this will finish the job. Thank you.
Thanks I appreciate the feedback!
Pan, thanks for the great videos! Couple of questions.
1. How do you know when the coating is starting to wear down and needs to be replaced?
2. What steps do you take to remove the coating when it is time to refresh?
3. As the wiper blades wear, is there a need to reapply to ensure non-chatter? Assuming if you replace your wipers annually, you would apply the coating on the new set?
Hi Paul. Thanks for the kind words about my videos. Here are my answers to your questions:
1. It depends on your consitions and mileage. 6 months to a year seems reasonable.
2. Same way as in this video.
3. Yes you should apply a bit of coating on new blades.
Thank you for the video! It was so helpful!! I stupidly wet-sanded my ceramic coated windshield thinking I could remove a drop of the coating that I didn’t level and I scratched the glass. I followed your steps to polish the glass and it removed all the scratches!

finally a decent ceriglass tutorial. thanks Pan
Thanks! I also noticed there wasn't too much information on glass polishing so I decided to do an easy to understand tutorial. :)
great learning to solve common headaches in everday problems
espicially bad windscreen
Thanks for watching Moiz!
@@PanTheOrganizerhello. When using these pads with a DA. How do you wash them afterwards or do you throw away these glass DA pads? Do you throw them in the washing machine?
One of my favorite youtubers to watch. I’ve learned so much from watching your videos and ordered most of the products that you’ve recommended for certain applications. Also I am a huge fan of The Rag Company and will only use micro fibers from them👍🏼
Thanks for your support and positive feedback Tristan!
I don't know why I do even bother looking at other channels. This is the best car details channel by far
Thanks Carlos! 👍🏻👍🏻
@@PanTheOrganizer I am just an enthusiast that loves to detail my own car. I have really learned a ton on this channel. Quick question, I have a gas-powered 3200 psi 2.5 GPM pressure washer. is that one good to use with the MTM PF22 foam cannon?
Yes but 3200 psi is too much to wash cars. Set it to 2000 or less.
Well it was accident really and I'm extremely happy I did because a lot of these other you tube guys just give you part of the solution and a quick fix but not a detail process like yours it is extremely nice to see a person like yourself explain everything .I live in Montreal Quebec Canada very cold here I came from the island of Barbados I'm born there have you visited any Carribean islands if not you should and I'm sure your you tube must be everywhere .Thank you for making such important you tube videos .
Thanks Ricardo! Cheers from Montreal !! :)
I heard his distinct voice and I immediately said “PAAN THE ORGANIZER”
He reminds me of Bottas
I have been waxing my windshield for 30 years. Started doing it after waxing them by accident. Clean them well, wax em and some elbow grease. Done. Works like a charm.
At the end of the video you mention using this technique on boats and airplanes. Boats and airplanes tend to have plexiglass rather than glass windshields. Plexiglass is much more prone to scratching, very sensitive to the heat generated during polishing, and is damaged by chemicals like IPA. Perhaps you could do a video on polishing and protecting plexiglass windshields.
I watch all of your videos Pan and think that they are brilliant. I dont comment on every one so just wanted to say a quick thanks for posting and keep up the good work. Your videos are well shot, very informative and have just the right amount of talking V demonstrating 👍
Thanks Phil !! I appreciate you taking the time to write this! :)
You are a real professional technician who knows to kick the buttons right .Keep it up !
Thanks!
Watched the entire video and still just went out and washed my windshield with windex.
You got inspired at least 😅
Good, don’t do what I did, I spent so much money watching his videos… 😂
@@youngz13o lol same here
😂
@@youngz13o Yeah the chemicals he uses are super expensive,So I watch for the Basis and not the products
Wow, been waiting for this one for a while! There aren't many good videos on glass polishing..
Thanks! Yeah I had noticed that there weren't many good tutorials on glass polishing and ceramic coatings, so I wanted to do a simple one showing both manual technique and machine polishing and keep it simple for all to understand. :)
Pan TheOrganizer What would you say this difference is between this and a factory coating that a lot of cars come with now? Is the factory coating more durable in nature due to being applied during the actual manufacturing process, like the screens on smartphones?
You deserve a statue or medal or some recognition of the sort
You're amazing
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. How did you discover my channel by the way?

Looking good man.
Thanks for making very informative video
Thanks Shaukat!
Great video! I love this kind of work on your car. My windows are already 5 years old so I will definitely go for it! I have some experience from applying UNC-R coat a few years back and I loved it. Gtechniq, Carpro and Gyeon are my favorite. I can advise all users to invest in polishing machine like Rupers or Lare. They will pay off and will give you an option to carry out all sort of works around your car always in 100%. Manual polishing is too much unpredictable and will not give you so good results so if you do it every let say 1.5y better to do it in best way with best results! Cheers from Poland!
Thanks Pan for another great tutorial! What a start of the weekend!! I used Gyeon View on my glass. So far very happy with it. A little similar to the kit from Carpro.
Thanks Jochen. Yes there are many good glass coatings kits from CarPro, Gyeon, GTechniq, Fictech, etc.
Best as ever tutorial - no more nonsense talk.... thank you Pan!
👍🏻
Those pictures of bird poo will give me nightmares
AHAHAAHA !!
Ahahahahahaha
*"JAWS " movie soundtrack in the background*
Another great video and product recommendation. I purchased the CARPRO CeriGlass to remove some odd scratches from my new MINI JCW Convertible’s windshield. It worked like a charm using just the hand applicator block. Thanks Pan.
Hey pan, I recently polished my glass and followed the steps in the video, and while it did remove the wiper marring, it introduced a load of small swirl like scratches. Just wondering what can be done about this. Thanks
Sounds like you didn't clean the glass very well. Clay bar before helps a lot
Dude, I've been wondering for the past few weeks if it were possible to polish your windows. Finally got time to sit down and investigate and you have the smoking gun! Will definitely be buying this kit and doing this job soon, Pan! Thank you so much.
You know I likely always have a video on a topic you are interested about. ;)
If you would have typed "glass polishing Pan The Organizer", BOOM, you would have easily found this video. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer Yessir. That's my usual mode of operation haha. Pan do you believe there's a downside to using distilled water and rubbing alcohol for a glass cleaner instead of a dedicated glass cleaner? I'm trying to find some research on this topic.
Many people use an IPA solution to clean glass, jury's still out on the appropriate dilution though. 10-15% IPA is a good starting point. Test on an inconspicuous area first if you're cleaning interior glass with tinted film.
Most good glass cleaners are already alcohol based, so it takes the guesswork out of having to get the dilution right. I use commercially available quality automotive glass cleaners myself.
@@PanTheOrganizerPan are there any concerns about applying this process to a new windshield? I came across a how to video on another channel and they warned that this is not intended for new windshields and that using CeriGlass could be dangerous. That didn't make any sense to me though. 🤔
Wonderful step by step explanation !! thanks for your great videos.
Thanks I appreciate it!
I will also like to thank you for the dedication to reviewing and educating the public
Thank you Rafael! What's your favourite video on my channel so far?
The one where you speaking in French about being a shopaholic for car detailing products 😂
@@PanTheOrganizer honestly tho I see some of your videos over and over again. I will ask a personal favor.....
I’m barely starting and much of my questions I ask to several people is about the overwhelming amount of chemicals out there to do the same job....
So maybe because of your wide knowledge is if you can make a video tackling this issue for newcomers like myself. Maybe you already have if you have please share the link with me. Oh and by the way I have driven through Canada 8 times from California to Alaska. British Columbia and Yukon are beautiful
Sorry by my concern I mean a video of how to intelligently due purchases for a detailing business so we not just wasting money. In your case you have so much knowledge that I think you can help for someone like me to build a detailing arsenal of products and than expanding as we gain experience to other brands like the ones you review. I have so hard time explaining myself I hope I was clear this time 🙏🏻
LOL
Looks great brother!👍
Thanks Sebastien!
Another great tutorial, Pan there’s a reason why your on top for detailing channels. Thank you for saving me time. I do not have to go through the sea of other channels when I know that you will have answers that I am looking for.
Let’s go! 😁🙌🏻 Thanks man. I work hard to produce my videos so it’s nice to see you guys enjoy them.
And with 800 videos on my channel so far, and new ones added twice weekly, you will always find what you’re looking for on my channel.
another top notice video and review pan.thanks again.
Thanks Richard!
Yet another fantastic video, if I didn’t live in the uk and lived in the same country as you, I would absolutely drive miles upon miles to pay you to detail my car.
Thanks for the kind words Alex. I appreciate it!
What's your favourite video on my channel so far?
Is all of them a good answer?, I like the ones focused on cleaning your BMW
Hi pan great video what can u use to maintain the glass like u would with a cc on your car? Reload?
I'm also curious if you are using a reload or an Sio2 topper for maintenence or even the elixir?
Highly recommended putting reload on wiper blades to reduce chatter also. Found it helps
You don't need to do anything for this glass coating. Just wash and dry.
@@PanTheOrganizer Really? I've had this exact coating on my 2013 Audi Allroad aka the #vancityallroad for few months and I've found it looses it's effectiveness after about a month or so. I have been testing out sio2 on it and of course you get the hydrophobic properties back.
I assume this coating is like others if you don't like it or you aren't happy with it you can apc/superclean and or polish it off with the DA?
Pan TheOrganizer awesome
Thanks for sending me the link to this glass polishing tutorial, Pan! MUCH appreciated!!!
Glad it was helpful! You'll always find what you are looking for in my collection of 1000 videos, and new ones added twice weekly hehe.
If you ever have questions about a topic, just go to the TH-cam search bar, type the topic and add "Pan The Organizer" at the end. For example: "how to polish glass Pan The Organizer" and that would have led you straight to this tutorial. ;)
Hey Pan, Thanks for making all this great content! I'm always glad to see when you put up a new video. Could you do a follow-up video at 6, 12 and 18 months just to show how the product you've applied has been holding up? I tried a previous suggestion from another TH-camr to use a product I already had in my car cleaning bucket. I don't think that option held up very long, probably a few months at best. It was probably a reasonable time and effort to performance ratio, but I'm curious if doing something like your video here will yield better long term results for time, effort and cost. Also curious to see how a hydrophobic ceramic coating holds up to Canadian salted roads during winter. =)
Thanks Thu. In the meantime, you can watch another video I made about a glass sealant that's even easier to apply and will give you 5 to 6 months real world protection. I have been using this for years, including on my own cars. Aquapel. Here's the video: th-cam.com/video/CN-WYF3Nnak/w-d-xo.html
Hi Pan, is that the new Maxshine M15 pro? Looking forward to your review.
You have great eyes! :). I'm working on the final bits for the full review and presentation video, and am waiting on the green light from Maxshine to release it, as it's not available officially yet. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer I've been eyeing on that since I saw it from your SEMA video.. I can't pull the trigger as I am still waiting for your video. I can't find any decent review about the machine. Happy New Year, Pan!
Pan TheOrganizer wife pulled the trigger for me and got the M21 Pro from Maxshine in Wisconsin. Way smoother and quieter than my GG 6 inch. Can’t wait for spring to use it. They included 4oz samples of a compound and polish as well. Seems like a very quality machine. Going to swap the grease like Brian from Apex detail suggest and be ready for your video and spring cleaning on my two vehicles
Sounds cheaper to buy a brand new screen.
Car wax does the same thing
Great video, how to clean the polishing block? just under water or is this for one time use?
Just like you would with polishing pads. Watch my tutorial: th-cam.com/video/IGDfRjcPaX4/w-d-xo.html
Is there a special method for cleaning the rayon pads, or do you just clean them like any other polishing pad? Or are they a single use product?
Just a bit of APC, rub it and work it in with your fingers and rinse with warm water.
@@PanTheOrganizer , thanks Pan!
I ABSOLUTELY love your channel. I’m a detailer at a car dealership here where I live. Been learning so much from you to do a better job at work so thank you. I haven’t been there even 6 months yet and have already been given a $2/hr raise!! So again thank you!!!

Awesome! Thank you!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO PAN. TOP MARKS MATE 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you very much for all the information and time invested sir. It does appear that with a "new 2019" formula, the coating process had changed a bit. Even though the directions on CarPro's website still mirror exactly what you did. But the box had a notation on the outside and a card on the inside stating that due to a new formula only 1 coat was necessary if you polish the glass.
Thanks!
Thank you for kindly answering all of my questions.
My pleasure. I’m pretty much the only big detailing channel over 870,000 subscribers that still replies to TH-cam comments personally, every day as you can see.
I spend up to four hours each day just replying to comments. It does get overwhelming at times as I receive thousands of messages and emails daily, but I try to stay close to my audience as much as possible. 👍🏻
Can we get a new video with better update products for this application
This method is still valid for those that need major glass polishing. It was a more professional level approach.
If you want something more user friendly, DIY, and if the glass is in decent shape, and doesn't need polishing, you can use a chemical glass stripping compound applied by hand, and then apply a glass coating. See my video on that topic here: th-cam.com/video/usdM-TrT7fg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Fqn-qNuKLzvf6vLU
Thanks again for referring me to this video
You do an excellent job
Very welcome!
Pan I love your videos you made me a detailer and now Im making money as a detailer !
I have a request can you make a guide for how choose best polish for any scratch ? All brand have 3step or 5 step polish and its confusing for me that should choose which of them for car scratches.
Thanks
Thanks Ali! It’s nice to see I was able to transmit my passion to you. 👍🏻
Glad i found your video, i never learned this in detailing school. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
With your expertise, how long does it usually takes to polish window from start to finish ?

It's impossible to answer your question though, as not everyone uses the same polisher, not everyone has the same polishing experience, not every windshield has the same amount of defects, etc. But perhaps 30 to 60 minutes is a good average for a windshield in decent shape.
@@PanTheOrganizerhow many cars can you do with one white pad ? 🤔
1. do i need to clay bar the windows?
2. for uncontrolled environment, like I get a little moist at night and morning. Will that make my work go to waste because you said to keep the car dry for 3 days.
by the way thank you for all your videos. keep it up!
watching your helpful videos here in the philippines. more power to you sir! God Bless!
Thanks Fervic! How did you discover my channel?
Curious if this would work for shower glass marred by hard water?
Dear Pan, thank you for being such a clear, thorough, and honest, teacher and guide. Watching you videos, I applied carpro skin, flyby forte, cquatrz leather, and more to my car. I did it thoroughly and correctly following your videos. Your channel saved me a lot of money by enabling me to take better care of my car. I also polished and cared for 4 of my family members' cars! Thank you!
I have a question: can I apply rainx on top of flyby forte to prolong its life?
Best regards
Feras
Thanks for the kind words. To answer your question, no don’t apply RainX on top of Forte. Just apply more Forte in a few months if you see performance diminishing.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you!
Very good info vid Pan. Well done!
Thanks Billy! How did you discover my channel?
Pan TheOrganizer , I love working on car finishes so surfing TH-cam looking for info from quality detailers I found your channel. I actually Ceramic Coated my sons RAM with Gtechniq CSL and was inspired to buy that product as a result Chicago Auto Pros ( Jason) and because of watching you apply CQuartz and learning from your video. I’ve actually learned quite a bit. This video has inspired me to purchase your recommend kit and apply it to my wife’s ‘15 R/T Plus Challenger. I really appreciate your replying !!! Thank you sir!
Thanks for this video Pan. Very Informative.
What happens if you have no garage or shelter and it happens to rain after the initial 4 hours curing time ?
What will happen to the finish ?
Just don't do it. Wait for a day where it doesn't rain. Why try something against the manufacturer's recommendations?
@@PanTheOrganizer Can you at least drive the car after 4 hours or does it have to be stored inside for the whole duration ?
Yes you can drive it after 4 hours. If it’s not raining, you can drive it right away actually.
Great content. I followed this tutorial perfectly with great results. Glass is cleaner than I’ve ever had. All is good during the day but at night, the rain is beading off but my new wiper blades clean off the rain but there is a haze that is remaining for a second after the wiper passes that reflects oncoming headlights. Brutal and worse than reflection off sheeting water. It seems like the product is doing what you said but wondering if you have experienced the ultra clean and ceramic coated glass but reflective haze after the wiper passes. Hoping you can comment before I mechanically remove to get back to a safe condition or make an adjustment. Thanks!
I never had such issues. What specific glass coating did you apply?
Also, make sure you degrease and clean the interior of your windshield to reduce glare and a film like appearance. See my popular tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/3rF6keJ88Y8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7YnD7cuOsudyQN24

Let's go!!! :)
Just googled Car pro, can’t wait to try their products, love a clean windshield👍🏻
Good choice!
Hi Pan, great video as always! I have two questions:-
1. How do I safely remove hard watermarks or spots on the side mirror? I am not sure if cerium oxide is the best option and I fear that it might damage the color of the coating or something.
2. After a snow wash (including washing the windshield using the snow wash shampoo), do I still need to use an ammonia free glass cleaner to clean the windshield?
Thanks in advance.
Great video Pan!! Can you use a polish compound with a DA polisher if you don't have the products you are describing Pan?
I use to do Wiper scratches in windshields. I must say when using certain compounds on windshields you can go too far and cause distortion in the glass leading to visual problems looking through the glass.
Is there anything i can do to prevent this ?
Hi there! I will try polishing my glass this weekend. Just couple of questions:1. What speed with polisher? As normal?-spread low and higher polishing? 2. Can I use not eraser-diluted IPA follow your instructions from car polishing? (if I remember that was 12%) 3. Can I use for last layer ceramic wax? (reason for that is not whole car is prepared yet) 4. clay bar or not? Tom
Maybe you figured it out.. but yes, clay bar after cleaning and before polishing. Use a medium cut compound then a fine polishing compound. Use medium to high speed on the DA.
You can do ceramic separate from the body, but remember to be careful with chemicals around it when you’re cleaning the body.
Yes clay bar. Before polish.
Medium to high speed.
Can do glass separate from body, just be careful about getting chemicals on it after it cures.
Great! Many thanks for your reply. All the best and keep it up 👍
Thanks Enrico!
I did exactly the same as in the film - great effect! Thanks Pan for this movie!
Thanks!
Awesome video, Pan! I got a glass coating for christmas so this video was very appropriate😀
Cool! What coating did you get?
@@PanTheOrganizer Nanolex, ceramic coated my car with their coating and so far I have been very satisfied with their products
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan, I got a question, can I use mother's california wash & wax on my ceramic coating or will it cause damage to it? It's a PH neutral soap, so I think it's okay?
MrWhiteguy6 Yes, it's safe for your coating.
Great tutorial. Gonna get the CarPro products. Questions: 1. Can i do this for shower glass? 2, What wiper fluid can i use? for example RAIN- X Washer Fluid Additive?
1. Yes. 2. What ever windshield washer fluid you want.
Pan, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have been looking for a howto to remove fine scratches from glass for weeks. During a recent maintenance wash I somehow managed to put a couple of super fine 1 inch scratches in my glass. You can't catch them with your nail and are only visible at night with oncoming traffic headlights. They are right in my line of sight and are driving me nuts. I really hope ceriglass and a glass polishing pad will remove them. I will report back when I get the kit and let people know if the ceriglass was able to remove the scratches.
Thanks Again.
Just an update, finally got to try this today. Unfortunately it was not able to complete remove the scratches in my windshield. It did seem to "knock them down" a little, so the glare is not as bad as it was. Might try again when the weather gets nice.
Haha, love that smitten cloth. Bet you were smitten with the result after. Perfection! :)
Hehe thanks!
@@PanTheOrganizer actually I've got a bit of an of topic question, regarding the Two Bucket Method; would you think using say 7 washmitts would be a good way to tackle a wash? So starting from top to bottom, each mitt for each panel more or less, but just using 1 bucket with sudsy cash soap. Chuck each mitt ready to be cleaned.
I'm just trying to minimise as much water where I can to be fair.
a friend of mine (not a professional) said he tried nano/ceramic coating on the windscreen but said it compromised the windscreen washer function... in other words, when you actually want the water to stick till you wipe the windscreen the (de facto hydrophobic) coating results in you wiping a "dry" glass
You're the man Pan!

I was wondering if I can use my normal paint polish and a microfiber pad for the wind shield?
Would it damage the glass?
Yes you can. No it won't damage the glass.

Heheh thanks Edward!! Hey, how did you discover my channel? And what's your favourite video on my channel so far?
@@PanTheOrganizer Good question. I'm an engineer who was made redundant due to Covid in May. I'm also a car enthusiast with a crazy level of OCD. The first thought after losing my job was to start a detailing business. All I had to do was search "Car Detailing Basics" on youtube and there you were. I believe you were the forth video i watched and loved how you explained everything. I think the first video was from "Chicago Auto Pros" which was interesting but not suitable to learn detailing. It was rather improvised to advertise the business.
Unfortunately, there's no much of variety of detailing products in Australia so most of my purchase is online which takes forever to deliver.
thank you for this great tutorial, definitely going to try this on my car :)
Thanks for the feedback. How did you discover my channel by the way?

You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing.
Great Video, Pan! I got two questions: 1) Can I apply the CarPro FlyBy Forte or G1 on the headlight/taillight covers as well? 2) Can I use CarPro Reload silica spray sealant for the regular maintenance (as you suggested on ceramic coated cars) on ceramic coated glass as well?
Quick question, what’s the polisher? Where can I get it?
That was my Rupes LHR15 MKII that I reviewed in this video: th-cam.com/video/U1ZD0L3RCa4/w-d-xo.html
Hi there! I have two questions. 1. Should I go for clay bar before polishing? (I guess no, because you didn't say that), 2. What speed with DA polisher? (my have 1-6 scale, I done heavy cut spread in speed 4) Greetings from UK. Thank you again for many videos.
I am really enjoying your channel thank you

How did you discover my channel by the way Brian?
Thanks Pan for another great tutorial! I’ve learned so much from watching your videos, my favorite detailing youtuber to watch. Also, would like to know how many minutes do we have to wait to apply the 2nd & 3rd coat on the windshield? Subscribed!
Thanks for the kind words Harith. Since you subscribed to my channel, let me officially welcome you to the Pan The Organizer family! How did you discover my channel by the way?
To answer your question, there is no wait time between coats.
Love G1 smart glass. I don’t even get ICE on my windshield as long as the coating is clean. I clean it regularly with Eraser.
does windshield fluid strip it though
Fanastic video . Which product did you use for wiper coating?
Well done write up, griots makes some good glass polish as well on a budget. Also might I recommend starting to wear resporators while working with coatings. Keeps you healthy and stops from breathing in volatile chemicals.
Thanks for the feedback!
Can I use this on plastics? Like bike windshield and helmet visor
This is more expensive than buying a new windshield a assume... can i do this myself? How much money i would need for all this?

Using mostly the same products he mentions in the video (the ceramic coating seems to not be available, so I used another one from the same brand)
Glass Cleaner - Invisible Glass ($6)
Glass Polish - Carpro Ceriglass ($27)
Residue Remover - Carpro Eraser ($23)
Ceramic Coating - Carpro CQuarts UK 3.0 ($63)
Polisher - Torq ($200, however there are several under $75 on Amazon)
Rayon Pads - 2 pack ($21)
Towels - $17
Total - $360
New windshield avg cost - $300 - $1500 depending on what you drive.
Could end up being less hassle getting a new windshield, but 360 for multiple applications of this technique is great value rather than upwards of 1500 bucks every time your windshield needs to be polished. I’d take the 360 dollar cost all day
Very clear details for a beginner like me. I have ordered the all-in-one package using you link given in the description. Thanks for the link for easy purchase! I have a question now. After 6 months or one year if I decide to do another coating do I need to do everything from Step # 1 or beginning from step # 6?
Glad it was helpful! And yes you would restart the steps. Just like you would for a ceramic coating on paint. For optimal results, you wash, decon, polish, etc.
