tskanolan Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 By way of shipping error I got a bottle of Revive Hand Polish, and wondered what I could use it for. After reading many posts about using Brilliant Glaze to get rid of that stubborn haze on interior windshield, I thought I'd give Revive a try. My car (2007 Nissan Altima) hazes over within about 2 weeks. Traditionally I just use Adam's Glass Cleaner and then it slowly creeps back. So I did 1/2 of my windshield today (passenger side). I'll report back, and include a pic in full sunlight in a few weeks. Thanks for reading.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mc2hill Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Interesting. I do not believe Revive has the same solvents contained in BG. But it is a chemical polish vs. abrasive polish, so it could work. Don't get rid of the Revive though,it is a good item to have in your detailing 'tool kit'. It is a great paint cleaner, and is often used to remove things that PC or FP will not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 falcaineer Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 What did you do for the other half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tskanolan Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 What did you do for the other half? Just left it cleaned with Adam's Glass cleaner. I want to see in full sunlight if I can see a difference between the two sides, and see if the Polished side hazes slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I burn through some other polishes I was going to buy the complete Adam's system and give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nitelord Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Never thought of trying Revive on the glass. I'm looking forward to your results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see in full sunlight if I can see a difference between the two sides, and see if the Polished side hazes slower. Lookng forward to the results as BG on the interior glass is my favorite product hack to date. If this goes well with the Revive, recommend you next try BG on half and Revive on the other. Unless someone else is willing in the meantime? 8675309'SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 blcksilv08 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) I've used Revive on glass quite a bit, mostly on the outside to remove water spots, marks from bugs and sap. Not as great as Glaze on the inside but it makes a difference. Edited September 2, 2017 by blcksilv08 falcaineer and Mariner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see OP's results from using it on the inside. blcksilv08 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 PacificNWBuckeye Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Interested in the results. I can attest Revive is great on plastics to remove fine scratches and clouding, so I am curious in its affect on glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mc2hill Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Thanks for the feedback. Do you use it by hand or on a finishing pad on an orbital/rotary? I use it by hand, primarily as a paint cleaner after polishing on dark colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
tskanolan
By way of shipping error I got a bottle of Revive Hand Polish, and wondered what I could use it for.
After reading many posts about using Brilliant Glaze to get rid of that stubborn haze on interior windshield, I thought I'd give Revive a try.
My car (2007 Nissan Altima) hazes over within about 2 weeks. Traditionally I just use Adam's Glass Cleaner and then it slowly creeps back.
So I did 1/2 of my windshield today (passenger side). I'll report back, and include a pic in full sunlight in a few weeks.
Thanks for reading....
