Expert Notes

Glaco Deicer does two jobs on a frozen morning. It melts the ice and snow on the glass, and it leaves a water-repellent Glaco coating behind, so the next frost or snowfall has a harder time freezing onto the screen. Soft99 confirms it is safe over Glaco coatings you have already applied. Shake the bottle, set the nozzle to the spray position and spray the glass from 15 to 20 cm, then wait for the ice to melt. If a noticeable amount stays on the glass, wipe it off with a microfibre cloth. Soft99 notes you can carefully use the wipers to help spread it across the windscreen.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Windscreens
  • Side windows
  • Rear windows
  • Door mirror glass
  • Glaco-coated glass
  • Frosted car glass

Caution: Spray it onto glass from 15 to 20 cm, and wipe off any noticeable amount that lingers on the glass with a microfibre cloth.

Soft99 Glaco glass care and detailing tools

Glaco. Soft99 launched its Glaco glass water repellents in 1991. The roll-on coatings leave the screen repelling rain so it is blown off by the airflow as you drive: Ultra Glaco Roll On in 70ml, Glaco Roll On in 120ml and the 300ml Glaco Roll On MAX, made to mark 30 years of Glaco. Glaco Mirror Coat Zero is a 40ml spray for side mirrors that leaves a layer of fine silica crystals. Prepare the glass first with the Glaco Glass Compound Roll On, which uses two abrasives to remove stains, traffic film and old Glaco.

Tools. The Super Water Absorber is a quilted drying cloth; wash it without fabric softener. The Surface Smoother Mini is a 100g clay bar for bonded contamination. The Exterior Brush has synthetic bristles for wheels, grilles and badges, the Interior Detailing Brush natural bristles for vents and dashboards, and the Digloss Kamitore wheel sponge cut-pile microfibre over a durable inner sponge. Keep it all in the Detailing Kuferek Bag, which holds four waxes and four 500ml bottles.
