Anyone try the Rain-X deep-cleaning windshield kit? Work better than regular liquid glass cleaners and scrubbers? I have a large number of tiny 'lumps' on my windshield. They only show up if I'm driving into the sun in the morning or evening but annoying then.
Haven't priced or looked for a source for the kit yet.
Suggestions?
TIA
I used it many years ago. It was just a cheap squeeze bottle. One rubbed it on and then polished it off. I was impressed with it. It works by coating nicks and scratches to reduce refraction of light. You just have to recoat occasionally.

Fingernail, ice scraper, and one of those scrubber/sqeegees like you see at filling stations. No success.
Go to an auto glass shop and tell them it's safety issue - the lumps distract the driver when the sun hit them. You are not lying. If you notice them when the sun hits them, then they are distracting you.
Have the shop replace the windshield and handle the insurance claim.
You do have full glass coverage, don't you?
I've lived with desert sand pitted windshield. I've used auto car wax with mild results. I also have wiper streaks. I bought some of this, but not have tried it yet.

I've used Rain-X glass cleaner and it removed the road film much better than Windex or other typical glass cleaners. Then I applied Rain-X, polished it out, and it caused the water to bead up during rain storms, improving visibility. Now I used a Rain-X wiper fluid that does much the same thing but with not additional effort

I'm in the midst of changing auto insurance companies. I don't think this is an appropriate time for an expensive claim.

Looked around and don't have one, except Schick Hydro blades for a razor which are too small to use conveniently. I do have some unused blades for my box cutter. Anyone see a problem?
Yes, possibly. Some windshields will scratch easily. Best to try it on a spot off to the side where it won't bother you if it does scratch.
