Do you get frustrated when you’re trying to clean your windshield and it never looks perfect? You may have wondered when the best time to clean your glass is. You want the most comfortable experience to make your windshield look its best. We will go over the conditions that are best for cleaning your glass and washing your car so you feel confident that you are truly taking care of your investment.

The time of day

You’ll want to aim for the early morning if you can. Morning can be the best because there is enough sunlight to work without the heat of the day. You will want the surface to be cool to the touch for the product to be able to do its job.

Direct sunlight will heat the windshield, making the cleaning difficult. You also want to be able to dry everything yourself. The sun can dry the surfaces of the car before you get the chance to rinse thoroughly, leaving residue from the cleaner. If you try to wipe it, you will cause streaking. The more you try to get the steaks off, the more streaking will occur.

Although you want to be out of direct sunlight, avoid night time. At night, it may not be warm enough to dry up all the moisture completely. Having moisture stay on the paint can cause corrosion so we want everything to stay dry.

The weather

The weather is a significant factor. Avoid cleaning your glass when it is windy outside. Sand can fly through the air and stick onto the freshly cleaned surfaces when you wipe, the sand can scratch up your glass and paint. A cloudy day is great for cleaning your car because the temperature remains low while giving you enough light.

Best conditions

No more frustrations with getting your windshield to look perfect. Aim for the morning when cleaning your car so the glass will be cool enough to clean. Remember that warm glass can burn your product off and cause streaking.
