Glass Cleaning & Rain Repellent

Clean, clear glass is fundamental to safe driving — and to the finished appearance of any professionally detailed vehicle. Our glass cleaning and rain repellent service thoroughly cleans all exterior and interior glass using professional-grade products, then treats exterior surfaces with a hydrophobic rain repellent coating that causes water to bead and clear from the glass at speed.

We clean exterior glass using an alcohol-based glass cleaner that dissolves road film, insect residue, overspray, and contamination that regular glass cleaners miss. Where needed, we use a light glass polishing compound to remove water spots and mineral deposits that have etched into the surface over time. The result is glass that is perfectly clear, without streaks, haze, or contamination.

Interior glass receives equal attention. Fogged or hazy interior windows are typically caused by outgassing from dashboard plastics, vinyl, and upholstery that deposit a thin oily film on the glass. This film is particularly dangerous because it scatters light from oncoming headlights and the low-angle sun — a major visibility hazard. We clean interior glass in multiple passes to ensure this film is completely removed.

After exterior glass is cleaned, we apply a professional hydrophobic rain repellent treatment — similar in principle to products like RainX but formulated to professional standards. The treatment creates a coating on the glass surface that causes water droplets to bead up and be cleared by airflow at normal driving speeds, significantly improving visibility in rain conditions without the wipers even running. This is particularly useful in San Diego's winter rainy season. Contact So Kleen today to book your glass cleaning service.
