If you've got a jug of it use it. Windex has been the standard for years. Invisible Glass is better because it doesn't streak but with a little extra elbow grease Windex will do a good job.

Yes you cans but this stuff really cleans windshields better than windex. If you use it as directed it works really well. We are smokers and our windows inside the house need cleaning frequently and I use only this now on all my windows inside and out! Good luck!

Windex is a good product, too. I just think that Stoner's Invisible Glass does a better job of not leaving streaks on the glass.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

Not at all in my experience, but I'd expect to at least use some Windex after you remove it. You're likely to smudge the windows pretty badly putting it on or taking it off.

I've been told not to use Windex, but use rubbing alcohol like isopropyl 50 to 70%. You use it to clean your CPU of thermal compound, why not the monitor?

It happened to me too. I used an old credit card (or something similar that won't scratch your windshield) to gently take it off. There was a black rubber circle on the windshield. I took my car to a glass repair shop and they took it off easily. The suction mount was slightly damaged, but it still attaches to the windshield (although the grip feels weaker).

They are so proud of it , it dosen't say. It will only use water based solvent, not very good for cleaning car parts unless it's hot. I put mineral based solvent in mine and burned the motor out in a day.

Supposedly. However, I just threw away a brand new cd that Novus 7100 #2 scratched up. The only reason I tried to use this was that the deck in my car caused a several abrasive marks on the cd. I used the product as stated. Shake very well and test on small patch. Seemed to do okay so I proceeded. I used a brand new, clean microfiber cloth. I noticed as I was polishing/buffing the surface with the #2 liquid, micro swirls were created. Fortunately, I ripped the disc to my computer prior to trying this, so now I'm burning a new MAM-R Gold Archival CD which hopefully my rip was good. So if you are determined to use this stuff, make a clean copy off the disc you are going to clean. Supposedly. However, I just threw away a brand new cd that Novus 7100 #2 scratched up.

I use windex --but spray it on the paper towel instead of right on the window just to be safe. Cleans well and have not had problems with the lines moving if you have them firmly pressed in place to begin with.

I've heard others speaking of adding this to the blue stuff you find at service stations and they end up with an anti-freezing windshield washer with extra cleaning power. I don't see why it wouldn't work. Let us know what you discover either way please.

Believe it or not, try Goo Gone. Make sure the glass is warm (sun shining through it, or use a hair blow dryer). You'll need to use Windex again, of course. I hope this helps!

Hello, yes if you are removing your original emblem you can just clean using windex and air dry for 5 minutes then apply the other art of speed backing. I hope this helps.

No, I have used these for years and I always wring it out and store it wet in the tube it comes with and it won't mildew. Since it's stored moist, it's ready to use quickly and for small touch ups or to clean the windshield. I had one get mildew and that was only when I tried to wash it once with an alcohol-based product (I really don't recommend that!)

I think you can, but I won't clean as well as the headlight cleaner. It's just glass cleaner with rain repellant.

It works better on the windshield. Clean surface with vinegar and water. Works wonderfully.

I seriously can't answer that question (without disinfectants). My main uses are cleaning mirrors/windows, and yes, you can use Windex (or not), mopping floors, cleaning tubs/fixtures, counter tops, etc., I personally use Lysol. I designate certain colors for just drying glassware. These microfiber cloths are also excellent using as wash cloth for your face/body. Once again, I designate just one color for this (white).. You also can wash your car with them, using whatever cleaning product you like. Just be sure to not use bleach or fabric softener when washing the microfiber cloths. I have found many ways to use them, and wouldn't be without them. But, for bacteria & germs I feel you must use a disinfectant. I think you may be thinking of the 'steamers' that use boiling hot water to clean toilets, counter tops, stoves, floors, etc. The steam kills bacteria & germs..

i called liquid glass themselves about this very question. they said the 'pre-'cleaner' [PC] will remove ONE layer of 'liquid glass' [LG], more than 1 layer will require mineral spirits (too scared to try that!?!. the PC says on the bottle something about removing paint and was hoping it would remove the touch-up paint, i let the PC sit and then buff 3 separate times and didnt see it removing the touch-up paint, said the hell with it and put more LG back on the areas where i used the PC and am now ready to start piling on the LG. i probably should have tried the mineral spirits on the touch-up paint but too worried about what else may happen to the original car paint. (if anyone is interested..... they offer their highest wax for only $12,500!!!!)

Impossible to say, really, but the bottle is comparable size to Windex or most other commercially available cleaners. It's pretty powerful so you shouldn't need to use a lot, but for the shine it provides it's sure worth picking up a couple of bottles. Avoid Windex since it has ammonia, and avoid Meguiar's since it leaves a white film that's hard to clean off. Perfect Glass is also adequate, but more expensive than Invisible Glass and not really suitable for automotive applications. It's great for around the house, though. Hope all this helps. This is by far the best stuff I've used for glass. Edit: obviously Bee Jay and I disagree on this product, but I've used a lot of different ones, so if he can find a better glass cleaner and post a review on here, I'll be sure to try it.
