So it has wax in the formula-- will the wax residue cause streaks on my windshield?

It hasn't for me and I've used it for over a year. I use invisible glass to remove any rare residue after the car wash.

I used this to remove bug splatter from the car. I did not notice any removal of wax but I suspect anything that works this effectively on hardened bug splatter would have an effect on wax also. I would recommend re-waxing that portion of the car where it is used. The chrome should be safe as it is harder than the wax on the paint. A little wax on the chrome would not hurt though, and keeping a good coat of wax if good to protect the paint, it also helps to keep other stuff from sticking to the chrome. If you do not remove the splatter from the paint it will do damage the paint, so better to remove it and re wax the panels where you use the product. I used this to remove bug splatter from the car.

I use it for polishing off wax (Chemical Guys) and works well (tear off the tag b4 use). For windows, I spray distilled water (no streaks) or Luber and use the cloth to wipe off the wet (absorbs well). Dries off rims just fine. After washing the car, i use a big raffle Micro Fiber (Viking) as these are too small. They are inexpensive and plentiful so I use it like paper towels but wash them later. I use it for our shower doors, countertops, mirrors, TV screen, etc with distilled water spray bottle.

You really shouldn't have any streaks with the final coat, Bob. Why not call their help line and see what they recommend? Otherwise, try waiting several days until the final resin completely sets up. Lightly sand with some very fine sand paper and then lay down a topcoat of quality polyurethane. I have no idea about the chemistry of the resin and the polyurethane, but it might be less expensive than ordering more of the resin from Rust-Oleum.

Yes. It is a very soft abrasive very similar to Glass Wax and leaves the same shine. I also found it is good for a stainless steel back splash behind my RV range.

You do not need to wax after it's applied. It will leave a very nice protective shine that will mirror images back at you. Great product! I will purchase again...

Absolutely not. I use the provided tail to remove the wax. A buffer for polishing. It turns out great.

I used it as a good quick wax detail. Nope do not use for windows ... Leaves smuggish.

No, I have used original glass wax way back in 1955, TR is great for windows and mirrors, but I don't suggest it for car windshields, it smears when it is raining and the wipers are on. You might try for QCI's Window wax.

Make sure it is fully heated. This wax leaves the least amount of residue for me.

While the Lincoln is still dealer clean, I'd put 2 or 3 coats of Collinite Insulator wax waiting a few days between applications. I find that gives a great finish that lasts all through brutal winters and hot summers, washes clean easily, while also cutting down on road rash chips 'n' scratches in the clearcoat. Just my $.02.

I would not use it...actually, even the window cleaner is leaving marks now. I will not be using any of this anymore. On my interior I use Turtle Wax cleaner and protectant, both in the green bottle and on the bumber ends and flares I use back to black.

This product is safe on all colors. Streaking is normal. If u don't have patience you should not be washing or waxing your own vehicle. high streaking is cause by over spray. This is perfectly fine. continue to buff the spot by hand with a cloth/towel (paint safe) and the streaking will go away. Keep in mind if your doing this in the sun it will take more time and patience to remove. My best advice is to wash in direct sunlight pull into a shaded area, and wait for paint to cool down. Lightly mist the spraywax one panel at a time. Use cloth (paint safe) to rub in and spread then use dry side to buff. This product is safe on all colors. Streaking is normal.

I also hear that it streaks in sunlight. I apply it on my car in my garage. I agree, great product.

When u apply it just be cautious of it, if you get it on the trim it wipes right off. Just do a final walk around when your doing the whole vehicle. From what I saw on my jeep it didn't stain any rubber window material or my fender flares.

Idk, I used it to flush the rust out of my radiator. I've had good results with glass scrub http://www.amazon.com/Glass-Science-Scrub-Cream-Cleanser/dp/B008O6VMDG just keep the windshield wet and it works great!

My purpose for buying this product was to clean the window (and it does also put a bit of a "sheen" on the glass) without the streaking problem I'd been having on the inside of my windshield. It works where others did not. I have not used Rain-X recently enough to compare in that way of using.
