Dawn wouldnt strip wax or ceramic coating? The excess that runs off the windshield that is.
Washer fluid has very low concentrations of surfactant and antifreeze.16 cycles wrote:S_2NR wrote:16 cycles wrote:Why not use a pH neutral liquid soap like Dawn to make your mix?

You might be right.
Do the specific windscreen washer liquids avoid this?

I'd hope so.
I prefer to just put a few drops of my car wash solution in the bottle and fill with water to dilute, as I know that is safe for the coating.
The active ingredient in floor cleaners, shampoos, dish soap, toothpaste, etc., is sodium lauryl sulfate. It's the active ingredient in most retail auto detailing shampoos, too.DMan7 wrote:Nothing is better than Squeezy. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

OEM windshields are designed to repel water so that driver vision is improved. The same thing goes for the outside rearview mirrors. This quality, called hydrophobicity, tends to degrade as the glass surface becomes weathered and etched. Waxing the surface of a very clean windshield or using Rain-X helps to restore it.Dave wrote:The waxing thing is real legit and for soap as was mentioned, your fav car wash is good stuff. I like polishing the wing mirror glass as well.
I mean if you want your car squeaky clean.aaron17 wrote:I thought they does say not to wash car with squeezy

I ceramic coated my daily and applied on the windshield as well, driving in the rain barely needs wiper input because it beads off so well.
In my bottle I premix like a tablespoon of car wash in a couple cups of water then put it in the reservoir to ensure it all mixes well

Did you do the coatings yourself?
