Griot's Garage 10665 3" Glass Polishing Pad, (Set Of 3)

Amazing result.. I try it and it gives the best results ..

They work great, good product and if you are polishing your windshield use these.

Son unos excelentes pads para pulir el parabrisas del auto. Se nota el resultado sin aplicar nada de esfuerzo. La pulidora con este pad hacen el trabajo muy fácil.

I used both the 6" and 3" sizes of these pads to polish all of my car's exterior glass in preparation for a 2-year ceramic glass coating. Used a liberal amount of Griots glass polish compound to prime the pads and Griots G9 and G8 polishers which are fairly short-throw DA polishers. The main goal of these pads is to bring the glass back to a perfectly clean uncontaminated surface prior to coating it. Removing water spots, any other physical contamination, and performing a deep clean of the glass surface that is unlikely to be accomplished with cleaners or chemical decontamination. These pads did a brilliant job of this and MAN does clean polished glass look amazing. You do have to have reasonable expectations about glass polishing. Paint and clearcoat can be compounded and polished to remove a majority of superficial scratches and defects, but that's not quite the case with glass. Yes you can make scratches and defects in glass a *better* to an extent, but don't expect to completely polish out scratches, chips, or deep wiper marks. If you're looking at these pads to remove damage to your glass, they will *improve* some kinds of lesser damage, but *fixing* damage may not be reasonably achievable. Fixing glass damage is a much more difficult and involved process, and often makes more sense to replace the glass. It's still worth using these pads because just by removing hard water spots, contaminants, and oxidation that you may not even be aware of could clarify the glass significantly. The pads held up really well and I only needed one of each size to do the whole car. I cleaned out the pads 5 or 6 times when they got clogged with old compound with a medium stiffness nylon brush and misted the clean pads with distilled water before reapplying compound. I completely washed out the pads and kept them because they appear to have some life left after doing a whole car. Keep in mind these kinds of pads generate a good deal of heat, which could damage and discolor automotive glass if it's allowed to get too hot. Maybe only do one full pass over a section, then go work a different section while it cools off and come back later for additional passes. If you can work indoors or at least in the shade, that would be ideal.

I love Griot’s products and this is no exception. It does a great job polishing glass. I washed one of the pads twice after using it and it’s holding up very well.

Okay, so I bought this Griot's Garage Fine Glass Polish because my windshield looked like it had been permanently decorated with 14 years of water spots. Honestly, it was like looking through a Jackson Pollock painting, but instead of artistic splatters, it was just mineral deposits. I hooked up my orbital buffer and went to town. Let me tell you, this stuff works! The water spots are GONE. I mean, G-O-N-E. My arms, however, feel like they've been doing bicep curls with a small car. Here's the thing: while it obliterated the water spots like a tiny, aggressive army, it didn't quite vanquish the tiny scratches on my front windshield. I was hoping for a "brand new, straight from the factory" level of clarity, but it's more like a "significantly improved, but still slightly weathered" situation. So, four stars because: Pros: Water spots? Dead. My windshield is now significantly less abstract. My arms are now impressively toned. Cons: Didn't quite erase all the tiny scratches. Maybe I need a diamond-infused buffer? Or a team of trained squirrels with tiny polishing cloths? Bottom line: If you've got water spots, this stuff is your savior. If you're looking for miracle scratch removal, maybe temper your expectations. Still, for the price, it's pretty darn good.
