Ok, I sprayed glass cleaner in windshield and and then used mr eraser but found myself the using a microfiber towel and wondered if I should reverse order or did I use the correct process since that pet wasn’t shared here?

This was in a rush job cleaning because I needed to be somewhere. They said, when I hit the freeway and sun beaming down the windshield look 95% great and 150% better than before.

That said, what is the step by step process and order that you use the Mr Eraser with?

I beg to differ. I’ve seen plenty of windshields get scratched and it didn’t happen from diamonds!

Glass is not that hard, ~ 5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale out of ten. (There are a good number of things harder.)

Magic Erasers (melamine sponges) have a Mohs hardness of 4. But you can scratch a harder material with a softer one by misusing the product.

Just be careful with a Magic Eraser and you will be fine.

Also Bon Ami or Bar Keepers Friend. Removes stubborn films and deposits on the outside.

Thought the HUD glass had a film on it that made it more viewable ? Not sure I would use any abrasives if that is the case …but if it works for you . Myself I have a problem paying $129 for a tool to clean glass.

Wow, I was happy that in a rush cleaning that the windows looked 95% better than they have ever before and I redid them yesterday and the wife and I were driving to dinner and all I kept telling her was look at the glass look at the glass and how clear and streak free it is. She then with the side eye said "I know how excited you are and YES the glass looks Awesome but that means I expect that my two cars will have the same perfect glass by the end of the week as yours".

I used a clean dry microfiber towel to wipe any light wetness that I saw after using Mr. Eraser and worked perfectly. Oh, on the second try, I did spray my "Sprayway Glass Cleaner" on the Mr. Eraser pad in lieu of just water for what it's worth and I still think about how clean and clear the windshield is.
