Dear all masters,

Just got my new car about 2 months ago. Somehow during raining recently, the windshield builds mist/smudge on the outside when the wiper running. If I run the wiper just once (drizzling), the mist appears only for 5 second then disappears, but the wiper runs continuously during heavy rain, then the mist/smudge will appear all the time and quite disturbing my visibility.

Some car saloon offered me to do glass coating for RM 250. Is it necessary? as it's only 2 months old car.

Need your suggestion happy.gif

Thanks.


If you like to try something different, use this Jap product from Autobacs Klang:



It is from Taihokohzai. It removes oil film (those smudges you are seeing) very well. Just spray and wipe off.

Some products have brief, albeit broken, English translations. Google translation from Jap to English is also very poor (even Malay to English and vice versa is better). I think it is difficult to translate Jap to other languages.

My ex company used to import German product, but before we put them into the market we stick English instructions over the labels....that is what I meant, if Jap bottle we buy don't know how to use..... smile_blackeye.gif
