No Touch GS8 Auto Glass Stripper - 8 oz.

This stuff actually will remove Rain X haze although it takes some work and multiple applications. Its unusual odor prompted me to check the ingredients: Three abrasives: ALUMINUM OXIDE, CALCINED DIATOMACEOUS EARTH, and SILICON DIOXIDE, and the others: WATER, DISTILLATES (PETROLEUM), ETHYLENE GLYCOL, and BENZENESULFONIC ACID, act as solvents or carriers. There are more efficient silicone solvents available for industry, but this seems to be the only effective and readily available consumer product. Its a bit pricey, but it works. If you appreciate clean streak free, haze free glass, this stuff is the bees knees. One caveat: You may notice more pitting in the glass because the waxes, silicones and other films are not filling the pits. However, overall clarity, will be improved. This clarity results in less glare which is especially helpful for night driving.

I admittedly have some really tough hard water stains on my truck windows. Nothing has been able to get them off. And I've tried a lot. When I used this product by hand it got the surface contaminants out. It did not do anything for the for the hard water stains though. Then I used the product with a high-speed buffer and a small pad. It definitely dulled the hard water marks. It did not fully remove them however. The trouble with using the buffer is that it sprays the product on to other parts of the car. You really need to have the hot soapy water ready to go to clean this stuff off of your vehicle when you use it. You may even need to wash the windows twice aggressively. I'll give it 3 stars because it did do some good. Especially when nothing else seemed to help.

I have spent two years and perhaps 100 hours and hundreds of dollars trying all the myth ways to remove that *&^%$ product Rain X and Fog X from the wonderful (otherwise) used Toyota Highlander I purchased. That terrible product smears a short time after application, and it seems that every used car seller or dealer thinks that it makes them money to smear it all over all the windows, inside and out... to make you buy their cars.I was about to get rid of the car... nearly ruined the windshield using 3 M pads recommended by one website. THIS IS THE ONLY PRODUCT THAT REMOVES RAIN X, BAR NONE, AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO COMPLETELY STRIP YOUR WINDSHIELD WITH JUST A BIT OF ELBOW GREASE TO A MIRROR SMOOTH AND CLEAN SURFACE IN ABOUT AN HOUR.Here are just a few that do not work, including Soft Scrub which Rain X says will work: Soft Scrub and Bon Ami, both recommended by Rain X (I spent at least five hours attempting to get the stuff off each of those and didn't dent it) Barkeepers friend (the other negative poster here is absolutely wrong for rain X... maybe for easy to remove goop.. but not RAIN X) Lacquer thinner, rubbing alcohol, mineral spirits, lighter fluid, baking soda paste... vinegar, ammonia... you name it. JUST NO TOUCH GLASS STRIPPER WORKS!!You use it with a slightly damp cloth or paper towel just like car polish.. and then rinse it off with a lot of water. There is a very fine powdery residue that you are rinsing off... I am guessing that the cleaning agent is a jewelers rouge of just the right fineness to cut without scratching... and boy does it work! A small amount of fine white powder remained after first rinse.. and was all washed away with more water. I will next do the interior that was ruined with Fog X.. and will have to put towels in place and rinse with a very damp sponge.I cannot tell you how thrilled I am to have gotten rid of that sorry **** Rain X. Thanks No Touch!!!!!

I have used No Touch Auto Glass Stripper for years to clean water spots off my automobile windows (you know how bad the areas get all around the outsides, where the wipers do not reach!!). My home window glass had so many rain drip lines that run down the entire length of the windows and hard rain water water spots so recentlly I thought I would try it on them. No Touch totally takes all the water spots off but you have so much upright surface areas with home window glass, that your arms are killing you after a while! I would say it takes 100-200 revolutions of scrubbing in the same spot to remove hard water stains from sprinkler water or shower glass). My window washers use a similar product to remove water spots, but charge about $300 per window because it takes so many hours to do just one window. So I decided to purchase a buffer at Home Depot, with a 10" diameter pad (the smaller buffers are way to weak to apply any pressure). The buffer takes off all the water stains but because the buffer it not a professional, heavy duty type of buffer, using too much pressure slows it down and so it still takes hours to complete a window...and now you are holding a heavier, 10" buffer upright and above you head which also makes your arms ache. I have decided to talk to my auto detailer about buying a better polisher or renting one, and maybe employ some strong teenager who wants extra money!! LOL! It seems impossible to scratch or overbuff the glass, as long as you keep the terry cloth buffer pads clean from any dirt or grit. I recommend thoroughly washing your windows first to make sure they are clean from foreign debris and then just expect it may take a while to polish your glass crystal clear, depending on the type of water spotting you are trying to remove. I know my shower glass installers used a glass polishing product that actually polished out fine scratches etched into the glass. This product definitely works but you may have to put some real elbow grease in physically polishing your glass.
