Ordering a bottle as soon as it's released, B H product's John, do you ever mix products? I always add a little surfex to my touch-less when my car is really dirty, which seems to work really well. Keep up the good work

Always loved BH's products. I've used a lot of their underbody products for about 10yrs now, Dynax cavity waxes, and snowfoams/touchless etc the last 5/6. They always do an excellent job, this latest one looks promising! Thanks.

And I've just bought the Soft99 Glass Set. This looks amazing. Now got two full glass cleaning bottles to use up before buying this one. It looks like I will still use the Soft99 compound and sealant, but will use this BH product for regular glass cleaning. I use one for the house windows, and it does a great job. Love the fact I've got articulated windows, so can clean the windows from inside. Love the Sofft99 applicator for their compound, and sealant, really did a great job of prepping the car, then applying their sealant. Using the wipers less, as the Soft99 stuff just works brilliantly, the rain just falls off especially at 60-70mph. I can only guess the Japanese flag refers to their product, don't know of any other Japanese detailing company. I look forward to longer term reviews, to see how well it stacks up, but the video was great at explaining how well their product performed. Another great video Jon, a first maybe promoting this new product?

Used this for the first time today. It is a great product - strong cleaning power and the name ‘Trace-Less’ is not a misnomer. There was no residue or streaking that I could see but I do clean glass with two towels, a glass cloth and a softer cloth to ‘buff’. Mine didn’t come with any BH towels. In the brief time I used it I would say it is exactly as described and a very strong glass cleaner. It will likely replace Gtechnic Perfect Glass which I have used for the last 5 years (having tried most others on the market). Only negative for me is the odour. It is not inherently unpleasant but is very sugary. I can understand the comparison you made to pear drops. It is not a natural smell or one you would associate with glass cleaner and the odour lingers. Going back to the car an hour later the smell was almost ‘ozone’ if that makes any sense (if you have used an ozone machine, you will know the smell). Almost bleach, medical and sterile. Not unpleasant but not great either.

Will definitely be getting some. Great video and BHs tests show how good it is, do like and appreciate how BH don’t spend money on fancy advertising and pretty bottles, every bottle is same, white and blue tells you what is is, what it’s called and how to use it. No need for pretty pictures and fancy trigger bottles that are awful to hold etc. hopefully they will bring out a screen wash at some point. My car cleaning stuff at one point was all big names and bit of a mix, now it’s nearly always BH with few other bits like Autoglym thrown in.
@markopolo99368 ай бұрын
The thing that sold me is the test they did on the removal on the dirt film and marker pen. There’s no contest, BH was clearly leagues ahead of the others. Plus there’s nothing more annoying when you’re cleaning glass and it all runs off before you can spread it! I will be getting some of this as soon as I run out.
@rheijne958 ай бұрын
Hey John, I have a cool glass cleaning trick that makes it easy as can be. I'm a car cleaner by profession doing dealership cars. I often get filthy cars and vans where interior glass hasn't been cleaned in years. I always get those perfectly cleaned in one easy process. I use ONR @ 256:1 and The Rag company FTW towel dunked and wrung out. Wipe that over the glass and then dry with their Double Twistress. Smoker or dog cars are no problem either. The only downside may be that it leaves a hydrohobic layer which could theoretically fog up the glass, but have never tested it against conventional cleaners or just plain water even. Clean glass by itself is very hydrophobic anyways. These twist loop towels are key as they clean greatly on their own, absorb very well and leave NO lint. They need to be in great (absorbing) shape.

I tried Stoners, but it does tend to run down the window a bit, but does clean well with no effort.

*Update* I've bought a bottle of this and my automotive glass is pretty clean already so I've tried it on my glass cooker hob/ extractor fan with weeks of grease and grime as you would imagine - Mr. Muscle has a lot to answer for...😂 Bilt Hamber have absolutely nailed this glass cleaner, it's removed imbedded marks and stains that have not been able to remove leaving a completely clean fresh and brighter then ever before since I bought the extractor fan. I am truly gobsmacked if I'm honest. Bilt Hamber have done it again. 👏Also Jon, I disagree that's its at the expensive end as you get a suede cloth and a glass cloth included- it's very good value when you factor that in.

We use Bilt-Hamber products most of the time...cost, though, of each product has to be taken into account. Early days for this product and look forward to a future update. We presently use a upvc-trade glass cleaner by "Bond-It" which does what it says and leaves a great finish. The Bilt-Hamber hand-cleaner is excellent and leaves a fresh lemon citrus scent/smell...unlike many hand cleansers, in comparison, not much is neeeded so saving cost. It has an ingredient that feels like smooth grit which dissolves quickly and leaves smooth skin, something we have to be careful about in our Senior years.

@jacksjp8 ай бұрын
2 ways to clean the window seals that wipe the glass. 1) spray an all purpose cleaner into the seal where it meets the glass, get a detail brush and agitate so you feel the brush bristles go between the seal and window. Then with a pressure washer aim on glass to spray water between the seal and glass. Be prepared to get wet 😅, if seals are green and or mucky you should see the dirt lift away with the water. If you have a car with pillarless doors then when you get to the rear end of the door aim the pressure washer nozzle it towards the back of the car so the water is deflected away otherwise it'll go into the car. 2) is with a good snowfoam, I have built hamber autofoam. I do the same as above with great results.
