You MUST use a pressure washer to rinse and scrub with a white brush and use simple green!! Pressure washer is the only way to remove the soda residue from the glass. A simple hose down with the hose isn't going to do it. Usually takes me an hour and a half of scrubbing and pressure washing. Dont do it in the sun and keep it wet untill you are done washing. Let sit in the sun for a good day to dry it out or use an air gun to blow dry.
Be sure the glass is completely DRY! Even after I blow it dry, i let sit in the sun for a day or put it in the booth and bake it (if it is cold out).
