Up a little early today so decided to test this new product out (purchased from ACC).
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160520/86c07e0852b9593f4045bf6683623f12.jpg
Sprayed three squirts on driver side half of my car`s windshield.
Wiped with ww mf glass towel.

One pass, just wiped from top to bottom
Left a few streaks that air dried before I could even get a pic. a towel flip and final buff that wasn`t really necessary.
Color me impressed.
Sorry not many pics, its not even 6am yet here, lol.
Thoughts :
Packaging- very nice but was weary about the sprayer
The sprayer IMHO is Horrible and I will be rebottling this or finding a better sprayer that will fit on this bottle. It`s just Bad. To unlock it, i almost broke it, and after one spray the trigger sticks and you have to pull it back out. not very effective. Additionally even if the sprayer worked perfectly, which it doesn`t, the bottle does not feel natural/comfortable in your hand when spraying it. It just feels awkward trying to use the trigger.
Maybe I`m just not using it correctly?
Smell: not recommended to sniff, smells Strong like chemical. Menthol scent is there but nose still isn`t happy with me.
Does it work? Yes, quite well actually. It`s a solid product IMO.
Would I repurchase it? No offense to Dodo, but I`m staying with my favorite glass cleaner and my second favorite glass cleaner, and my 3rd favorite glass cleaner. (This would be 4th IMO as the sprayer issue and its design immediately ruined the product for me.)
Sorry to flame the sprayer but man I don`t like it at all. I just took it off and tried to see if I`m just an idiot, and I still don`t like it. At all.
But Solid product. I was very impressed at how quick it was to use, once you got it to spray.
I just don`t see this taking over my glass cleaning duties even though it worked very well.
***edit: 2nd attempt. before I got into my truck I decided to give this a shot on PBL coated glass. I didn`t have time to switch the sprayer, but I did take another look at and it and couldn`t figure out if there was a trick to it or if its just a bad sprayer (a dud or just bad design, unsure). I ended up putting my index finger behind the trigger so when it got stuck I could push it back out.. it worked but definitely wasn`t as easy as one would want it to be.
On PBL- cleaned very well again, really didn`t even need a second wipe with the ww mf towel, this glass was actually dirty not just dusty from sitting in a garage for three weeks
streak free- yes....but it left the surface more tacky than PB glass does and I am not sure if that will affect my glass coating or help it. I will have to do more hands on testing with this.
