pH: 5.8

General thoughts and impressions:
- Scent: Cool Mint.
While the scent is reflective of a cool mint scent, it is not exactly a scent that one may expect.
It is not like a mint chocolate chip scent, or a scent typical of the auto detail industry.
It is very similar to the scent found in industrial bathroom cleaners.
It is not a bad scent, but not one I found favorable.
- Very runny consistency.
- Lots of water in this product.
- Lots of work to buff in.
- Takes multiple buffing attempts to reach product baseline performance.
- Very good surface cleaner.

Would I recommend for auto glass:
- Production detailing: No.
- Personal detailing: No.
- Surface cleaning: Yes.
- Decontamination: No.

Does this product live up to its advertising:
Yes.
It does not, however, set the bar in glass cleaning performance.

Final thoughts:
- Was glad when my experience with this product was over.
- Shop smells like bathroom cleaner.
- Look forward to removing this product from the auto glass.
- Can live without this product.

Thanks for taking the time. I am looking forward to some products that get good review and finding out who the winner\s are after all of this.

Vanev: Do you currently have a favorite cleaner?

Personally, I've tried about 5 or 6 cleaners (including Windex). My favorite is Mothers ReVision. It's not cheap, but I gladly pay the premium for this product.

Haha.
It does seem that every glass cleaner review I have posted so far has not been favorable.

I am in the process of putting all the reports together of the auto glass cleaners I have tried so far.
I have tested 12 out of 21 (or more) that I have in inventory for testing.
Once I get through this phase 1 of testing, I will see where it goes from there.
I will probably add in a few more before moving onto phase 2, which focuses on aerosol based auto glass cleaners.

I just posted this review on AutoGeek for Meguiars Perfect Clarity Glass Cleaner.
Review:Meguiars Perfect Clarity Glass Cleaner - Auto Geek Online Auto Detailing Forum
This product is a real winner and miles better than D120 for comparison.

I do.
I have openly praised Armor All Auto Glass cleaner many times in social media.

My goal is to find a product that out performs it.
I originally discovered this product 10 years ago.
Just wanted to try it, as I was looking for better products than I was using at that time.
Went to a local AutoZone, and they had a very limited selection.
I think the Armor All was the cheapest, so I picked it up.

There are very few "silver bullet" products that exist in any industry.
This is without a doubt one of them.

It scores a perfect 10 in every category:
- Cleaning ability.
- Clarity.
- Deep Clarity.
- Reflection.
- Shine.
- Scent.
- Surface Cleaning.
- Price point per ounce.
- Showroom Presentation.

Mother's ReVision is on Deck.

Currently I am testing Griot's Garage.
