How to Clean Glass Surfaces

Glass surfaces form a positive charge attracting small particles forming a weak bond on the surface. It is common for dirt and dust to stick on the glass although to the eye it is perfectly smooth. So why is it that the dust just doesn’t slide off of glass? Well it is due to the electrostatic charge of glass. It acts like a magnet attracting particles.
It is possible to neutralize glass and reduce the electrostatic charge. Certain products are available that coat glass as well as smoothen the microscopic crevices on the surface. I came across a glass cleaner called Repellent Wash from a company called Tekon and it works. The product claims to remove electrostatic charges as well as provide a layer of surface sealer a few nanometers thick. Upon ordering the product I read as the label stated, “simply spray on and wipe off with a micro fiber cloth”. I thought to myself, seem pretty simple. So I decided to try it on my glasses first. Sprayed on some Repellant Wash on the surface and then wiped off as directed. I have never seen my glasses so clear. It looked as if there was no glass. I decided to try it on my porch glass doors. Sprayed it on generously, and then wiped the excess off. I cleaned it on both sides. At first it looked wet, but as the solution dried the glass looked crystal clear, so clear in fact that there was no reflection. Again, it looked as if the glass was gone, it was absolutely clear.
Now, I use Repellent Wash on all my glass surfaces, I only treat it once a month or so, and it keeps all my glass windows looking as if they were just purchased yesterday. Tekon Repellent Wash is an amazing product for glass surfaces and I am glad I came across it.
As a word of caution, homemade glass cleaners or cleaners that contain ammonia can strip the protective coatings off of rubber moldings and metallic surfaces making them exposed to the elements. Repellent Wash does no such thing. It actually coats rubber and metals. To learn more about the products visit their website at http://www.tekon.com
