DIY Detail Crystal Clear: Streak Free Glass for Your Ride?
by Reece @ DIA clean car is a happy car, and that definitely extends to the windows. But achieving a truly streak free shine can feel like an endless battle. Enter DIY Detail Crystal Clear, a glass cleaner promising to leave your windows streak free, without the hassle. I put Crystal Clear to the test to see if it lives up to the hype.
Crystal Clear Claims
DIY Detail Crystal Clear boasts several key features:
- Streak-free cleaning: This is the ultimate goal, a clean window shouldn’t be marred by unsightly streaks.
- Easy to use: No complicated application process here. Crystal Clear promises a simple spray and wipe application.
- Safe for all glass surfaces: Crystal Clear can be used on both your car’s interior and exterior windows.
- Effective grime removal: Whether it’s road grime, fingerprints, or dust, Crystal Clear claims to tackle it all.
Putting Crystal Clear to the Test
Applying Crystal Clear was a breeze. The spray bottle dispenses a fine mist that coated the windows evenly, or covered your microfiber towel before use. A few swipes with this towel left the glass looking noticeably cleaner. The true test, however, was the absence of streaks. Thankfully, Crystal Clear delivered on its promise and the windows were left clear, without any annoying residue. I also used this cleaner in combination with Nick’s Favorite Glass Towel from DIY. Below are my results from the glass surface before and glass surface after.
What I Liked:
- Effective cleaning: Crystal Clear did a great job of removing dirt, grime, pollen, etc.
- Easy to use: The spray and wipe application couldn’t be easier.
- Streak free results: This is a major win. No more buffing and re-wiping to chase away streaks.
What I Would Like to See:
- Larger bottle option: While the 16oz bottle is a good size, a larger option would be ideal for those who detail their car frequently or detailing businesses.
Final Verdict
DIY Detail Crystal Clear is a strong contender in the world of car window cleaners. It is easy to use, delivers effective cleaning power, and most importantly, achieves that streak-free shine we all desire. While a larger bottle size would be a welcome addition, Crystal Clear is a great choice for both car enthusiasts and casual detailers alike.
Looking forward to checking these out!
