I`ve never heard anyone mention this. Is it a good thing to clay the windshield and windows (sunroof)? Or is it a waste of product?

Definitely do it, especially sunroofs since sap and contamination love horizontal surfaces. It wouldn`t be much of a waste, unless the glass was very contaminated, in which case it needs clay anyway :).

I typically clay the paint, then the glass and finish up with the wheels. No waste.

Yes do it

Then follow with a glass restoring product

DP glass restorer, Diamondite, P21s polishing soap and Sonus glass & chrome polish are my favourites

Can`t believe the difference after doing it.

I might add that I save my grungy clay for the glass and wheels. When it`s too dirty to use on paint, it`s still okay on glass.

Hey, now that is an outstanding idea! :xyxthumbs



This might even work for dropped clay, if enough of the really bad particles can be removed!

dbDitto...and it is the only thing that took the water spots off the sunroof. Since I found that this was sucessful, I have always saved my clay from the finish work and now always clay that sunroof when I do a full wash, using some of the soapy water for a lubricant.

When clay does get contaminated, do any of you fold the block into a small square and cut it in the middle.

I cut it in half to reveal a clean new layer and do that a couple times then re knead. I also get out the rolling pin get it flat as possible



Thanks for the tip david, never thought of that.
