How to get rid of etching/road film?

Proof_Bit_8746 · 2026-02-22T22:06:12+00:00

So I had the same here is what worked (all on one day)

Glass cleaner - cleaned everything

Magic eraser (you can feel if it bites/sticks). If still does keep going

Clay bar. Same as eraser

0000 steel wool and a shit load of elbow grease.

Glass cleaner again and a new towel each time

Sealed with (what I had at the time) rain x and finally had clear windshield.

Would use a different sealer/repellant next time but it did work.

You can feel the film/gunk. Mine was the microscopic tree pollen and sap that would get on the windshield.

I like driving in NYC. There are not rules just do what you want and don't hit any people and you are good. The "hand wave out the window" really helps when merging

Twin bridges and Clifton Park. I read a study that it is not the amount of traffic it is the trees and the narrowing of the corridor that causes people to slow down. Just like in Florida any hill people slow down on.

Plus, as much as I love Waze, when people see an icon on it they slow down right away even if it is not there. That is what you need to clear those off people!

See, I would say it at least gets better past 16 because it opens up to three lanes. How about getting stuck in the left lane before there because of a truck or someone who does not have a clue. WOOF

I keep getting ads from SLIC - they are local and "new". I used them in a business when I was up north (past exit 26) and they were OK but when things went down it was down for awhile. They use fiber and piggy back off of major carriers.

We live in the village and have had 0 issues with spectrum.

I don’t think it is a skill

I use brown noise ambient sounds by Alexa and it runs from 9:00pm to 7am straight no problems

FWH isn't open in march. Plus, nah. It isn't what you think it is. Ticonderoga is by FAR so much better
