New windshield: What to use?

[imported_jgv]

I have a new windshield on my car, is there anything you guys use to help prevent wear on it? Like rock chips and wipers scratches?

Polishing your windshield prevents the wipers from scratching the surface. I like using AIO on mine.

I use Zaino Z5 on all of my windows, and they bead water for months and months. I don't need my wipers while moving because the water just flies right off

Only thing that sorta fits what you're looking for in terms of chip protection is Diamondite Shield. I apply it whenver I go on major highways, I can't tell if it really works though :nixweiss

Don't drive it . . . on the highway . . .



seriously, though, I put on a new windshield (Mercedes E-class) all was good until the first time I went out on the highway. Stone chips right away - especially visible on a pristine new windshield. And I do my best to stay away from trucks that raise dust and junk off the highway shoulders. The glass appears to be very vulnerable. Don't know what you can do to prevent it.

jgv,

I have put AIO/SG on my front window. It hasn't been on there very long. So far its great, Water beads up like crazy. If I am going very fast the water rolls up the windshield and onto the roof.
