Since trying ADS Glass I have no other reason to choose any thing else. This is the easiest glass coating to apply and it gives great results on those rainy days. Great job ADS!

We at Armour Detail Supply are committed to developing enjoyable, easy-to-use formulas that provide professional-level results. We live by the notion of providing "Car Care Products That Are NOT Over-Hyped!". Meaning, we are not in the business of overselling our products, providing outlandish claims, or claims only proven in lab environments. Does your vehicle live in a lab? Do you? We didn't think so. So why make claims based on lab results. That’s why we have separated ourselves from industry-specific buzzwords like “ceramic”, “graphene”, “titanium” and “nano”. These coatings primary ingredients are Silica Dioxide(SiO2 or Quartz)/PolySiloxanes/PolySilazanes (as the protection), proprietary resins (as "attachment systems"), and carrier solvents (to provide an easy installation). Hence why we call our "ceramic" coatings, Quartz Coatings. We have done the lab testing of our Coatings, it suggests durability over twice what we are claiming and hardness levels we know are laughable. When entrusting the protection of your vehicle to Armour Quartz Coatings, you are experiencing only real world claims and durability.

Prep:
The Prep is the most important step of the process, our coating is great but it can not do the prep work for you!
1. Decontaminate the Glass surface using Armour Detail Supply Decon Soap and Iron Remover, followed by removing further embedded contamination with a clay bar or synthetic clay mitt.
2. For best prep practice, polish the glass to promote proper bonding and remove any existing repellent coatings.
3. Use our Armour Detail Supply Panel Prep to remove any oils/residue left from your polishing step. If you did not polish the surface, repeat this step twice to ensure a clean surface.
You are ready to apply Armour Glass Coating!
Application:
1. After thorough prep prime the applicator with 3 lines to start and each subsequent application will only need a small amount, a little goes a long way.
2. Apply Armour Glass Coating to one section of glass at a time. Apply using a methodical circular motion with medium/heavy pressure. There is no cure time with Armour Glass, it bonds instantly and is ready for removal. Armour Glass can be removed immediately, or left for up to a few minutes before removing. Best practice is to apply to half of the windshield or 2 pieces of side glass, then proceed with the leveling process. This promotes maximum efficiency working around the car.
3. In a small circular motion level coating 95%+ on 1st wipe (short nap, pearl weave). Switch to 2nd towel (plush) for final leveling. Check for any streaks, or high spots which can appear as cloudy or dark spots. Repeat this process per glass section.
We highly recommend applying 2 layers on the windshield. If you wish to apply multiple layers, there is NO cure time between layers; you can apply them instantly or wait - it's your choice.
After Care:
Armour Glass requires NO cure time. The vehicle can be driven and get wet immediately.

Super easy to apply!
My first time applying a ceramic coating of any kind other than a spray sealant. The glass coating was easy to apply and made even easier as a result of the great tutorial videos that Bradley has put together. Very pleased with the results and I’ll be trying the quartz coating next.
Applied on my glass before a long distance trip and performed well as far as repelling any dirt and bugs. And the water repelling is insane after giving it a wash, definitely recommend this that will last a long time if prep is done correctly.
Easy to work with and a another great product by ADS. First time I applied it, I had thought I had a bad batch since I was getting no hydrophobics.... Basically like nothing was on the glass. I realized I had goofed up the prep by using a lake country microfiber pad that has residual polymer sealant from a one step I used in the past. After thinking about it, I decided to redo everything, along with a rupes coarse cut/jescar Performance cut to make sure I get any left over protection for a bare clean surface along with ADS surface prep. Glad it worked and man, the hydrophobics were amazing as expected. Around 25-35 mph, the rain was evacuating off the glass. This is why I enjoy all the ADS coatings. I'm glad to add this as an option to my client's along with phobic & quartz with the winter rainy season coming up.
Worked exactly like the video described. Now all we need is some rain here in South Texas to try it out.
Easy to work with and watch the water come right off. Very impressive
Glass and quartz ceramic coating are easy to apply and great products. I have switched all my detailng products to ADS haven't found any that I haven't loved !
Glad coating was easy to apply and I will buy again
Prep is everything, product is easy to apply by following directions. Got caught in rain during to WPB today and the water was flying off not only the glass but also the first time in rain after coating with PRO Quartz Ceramic. I’m a believer!
Longevity and ability to shed water is what I most appreciate in this glass coating, Who needs wipers when this is applied. It’s the final piece to a properly ceramic coated and protected vehicle!
Where do I start... This coating was crazy easy to apply and remove. It laid down on the glass, flashed per instructions (I noticed beading/sweating) and wiped off easily. If you choose to do 2 layers on the windshield like I did, expect to flip your applicator after the 30 min wait time--the first side I used was pretty crispy. Can't say anything about durability yet, but it looks quite promising given the user experience and quality of material. Thanks ADS!
Easy to apply! Sweat and rainbows. You can see where it is applied. Has been on suv for 3 months now and going strong super hydrophobic you don’t even have to use your wiper blades in the rain. 5 star product ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fantastic glass coating for a super hydrophobic effect!
Easiest glass coating I’ve ever used. Great stuff
I never leave reviews on anything. I got this item in the glovebox mystery box. I then proceeded to store it incorrectly. Left it outside through a harsh winter with temps often below 15 degrees. I also left it on the shelf for over a year. I had small hopes after all of that. It was then installed on a police cruiser. One driven by multiple people who dont know how to take care of a coated windshield. They let the wipers run all the time. The car is subject to all weather. Never parked inside. With all of that said, the coating is still holding strong after a year and a half. I am blown away by this product. If you are on the fence, by it. You wont regret it.
I love this glass coating! It’s held up to the last few MN winters and is still going strong. It’s super easy to apply and maintain.
Best glass coating I have tried to date. It’s durable and super simple to install regardless of environment. Wipe off is what makes this stuff a winner. Easy buff with No haze or film at all !! ADS is great company with awesome products and EXCELLENT customer service !!
The glass coating is fantastic! I followed the directions even polishing the windshield a bit of work but so worth it! Live in south florida almost can get rid of the wipers lol! So easy to clean now also! Thanks Team ADS outstanding products and support!
Easy to instal! Great performance! Can’t go wrong.
Easiest glass coating I've ever used. Great work time, even in high humidity and no smearing/streaking issues. No issues with wiper chatter either!
