Big issues With the Adams Glass Cleaner

[texn884]

Here is my beef the past few weeks cleaning my glass on the inside.

 

When I clean the glass using the green cloths the glass looks like it will be turning out clean until the cleaner starts to dry and then there are little mico lint particles all over the glass. I don't wash the green cloths with bath towels just my adams towels.

 

I just spent 30 mins on the drivers side on my car and the inside is covered in this small crap.

 

What is up????????:confused::confused::confused::(:(

 

Not a happy camper

Ever tried using Brilliant Glaze on the inside of the glass, especially on difficult to clean vehicles?

 

I find that cuts whatever stuff is on the glass, and makes it much easier to clean.

 

Try that please, and report back!

Call me crazy, but If it only happens on one of your vehicles, common sense seems to tell me that it's not an issue with the glass cleaner or the towels, but with the glass in that vehicle.

Sounds like someone (prior owner or dealer) used RainX or a defogger on the glass. I am on my second gallon of Adams glass cleaner and have not experienced any problems.

I would also suggest trying another brand of glass cleaner like Invisible Glass and see how that works.

Clay works well and I have done it many times..... Follow it up with a good hot water on a CLEAN micro fiber wipe down.

I have seen these micro-particles/lint on my glass as well when using the green glass towels. Fortunately, I still have the blue glass towels that do not leave this type of micro-particles/lint. I just figured the towels had picked up something from the washer and/or dryer. Too late for me to send the green towels back.

Sir, I feel your pain. I have yet to quite "perfect" the glass towels, as I prefer the WW towels, but hey, that's just me

At least someone else has had this issue so I am not NUTS!

These green towels did take me some time to get good at using to avoid the "clumping" action. Also struggled with having small lint/dirt and this was the worst on worst on a Mazda 6 and on my Bride's Vette. I don't know what finally fixed my lint problems but I did a couple different things:

1) Cleaned the window a few different times, once using APC (but NO APC on the tint). During these multiple cleanings I used the waterless wash towels along with practicing with the green glass towels.

2) Now I always hand wash the green towels with APC and allow to air dry. I believe that the towels were picking up lint from my washer or dryer

 

Hope you figure out what is causing your problem. :thumbsup:

Don't ever put them in the dryer, that's definitely where your lint was coming from.

Sounds like a linting issue from the towels. Then again, you didn't get this "linting" on your other vehicle, so I assume it's the glass. Highly doubt it's the actual cleaner.

[texn884]

I will give that a try this weekend. The Brilliant Glaze works so good on the Paint I will really need to wear my shades all the time after applying it.

[Team Adam's]

Whatever you figure out Curt let me know... if the towels are giving you problems I can replace them with new ones, exchange them for waterless towels, or just refund the purchase - your call....

 

We'd much prefer you be happy with a refund/exchange than upset with towels that don't work for you.

[texn884]

I'll let you know this weekend. I'll try with the Water Less Towels also and see how they work.

 

Thanks Dylan

The guy's just asking for advice, why close the thread?

 

Anyway....

 

Claying the inside of your windows may seem like a strange call but you'd be surprised just how much debris can cling to the inside of your windows.

 

You can, of course, take advantage of Adam's brilliant return policy, however I highly doubt it's the products you are using but rather the application process and/or the surface.

 

 

 

Something doesn't sound right about your ordeal.

I used the Brilliant Shine on the inside windscreen and wow cleaned

Them perfect. Did all the glass on the outside also. I think the problem solved.

Are you putting them in the dryer on high heat? That will cause single and double soft towels to shed.. I wash my glass towels with my single and double softs and air fluff the towels with no heat and I don't get any lint.. The lint your getting likely isn't from the glass towels at all.

[texn884]

I don't put them in the dryer I let them all air dry.

[Kingsford]

How old are they? What do you wash them with? How do you wash them (hot cold warm)? Do you wash them with towels in general or all microfiber towels?

[texn884]

6 months old and I just used a brand new one.

Wash then in warm with just micro towels.

 

The glass looks like crap.

[texn884]

Plus my my Ford Explorer is only a month old. grrrrrr
