Thank you for the advice. If I apply Quick Sealant now; could I apply Glass Sealant later? And if so would I have to remove the QS before applying the GS? Again thank all of you for the most helpful advice.

Thank you Koebe. The moon roof is made from real glass. While I have over 20 different Adam's products, the Glass Sealer isn't one of them. I will have to order a bottle. Cheers, Deral

I have just purchased a 2012 Ford Focus 5-dr Hatchback SEL. What is the best product to protect the moon roof? Deral

Thank you for the excellent advice. Water does bead now (of course we have only had the car for three weeks) but it will be interesting to see how long it continues to bead.

I would like to thank everyone for their thoughtful/informative responses to my query regarding Simoniz GlassCoat. It does come with either a 5 or 6 year (I forget which) "guarantee" but I am unsure as to how one would be able to "collect" on it. For sure I am going to apply Buttery or Americana Wax (my pocketbook says "Buttery", but my brain says "Americana"). Again, thanks: Deral

Her 1991 Legacy had ~120K on it. Given the ever increasing cost of gas I suspect we will be driving "less" rather than "more" in the future.

Chris, I tend to agree with you. The 1991 Subaru died suddenly and my partner needs dependable transportation hence we had little/no time to do research on the Simoniz GlassCoat. After trying to (after the fact) do research I decided that we should probably start working on protecting the finish of the new Forester (in addition to the GlassCoat). We are senior citizens and this will probably be our last vehicle hence I want to do everything possible to keep it running/looking great. The GlassCoat is some kind of a polymer (I think) coating. Will Adam's waxes adhere okay? Thanks in advance. Deral

LOL. Since the Simoniz GlassCoat treatment cost over $500.00, I do not think that my "partner" will be very keen on stripping the GlassCoat off. Finding "reviews" of GlassCoat on the web was (for me anyway) difficult. About half said that it is a way for dealers to make a "huge" profit and the other half said that the GlassCoat *did* provide an excellent "hard"/"long-lasting" layer of protection (to the Subaru which supposedly has relatively "soft" OEM paint). After much research I have decided that Adam's products are what I want to use on our Forester. Her previous Subaru, purchased new in 1991, lasted for 20 years. We hope to make our new (2010) Forester last for the next 20 years hence I want to use only the highest quality (Adam's) products on it. Deral

Greetings, I am a newbie. This is my first post so please be gentle. My life partner just purchased a 2010 Dark Gray Metallic Subaru Forester. The vehicle has 9600 miles on the OD and the finish appears to be in very good condition. Because we live only three blocks from the Pacific Ocean and the vehicle will be parked outside, the Subaru dealer convinced her to have them apply Simoniz GlassCoat. The dealer said that she/we would not have to wax the Forester for years and years. Knowing nothing about GlassCoat I checked the Simoniz website were I discovered that Simoniz said that one could wax over GlassCoat if one so desired. Given that the vehicle will be exposed to "salt air", 365 days a year, my sense is that it might be prudent for us apply additional protection, such as Buttery or Americana wax. I would greatly appreciate any advice as to whether we should/could use Adam's products to further enhance/protect the finish on our "new" Forester. Cheers, Deral
