Improve wet-weather visibility with SOFT99 Glaco DX G-315, an advanced glass coating designed to make rainwater bead up and move off your vehicle's windows more easily. Featuring SOFT99's innovative S.A.R.F. (Strong Adhesion + Rapid Finish) technology, Glaco DX creates a smooth, water-repellent layer that helps rain slide away from the glass while driving.
The upgraded formula combines strong water repellency, convenient application, and a claimed durability of approximately 4 months, depending on driving conditions, glass preparation, and maintenance.
Its innovative swivel-head applicator and large square felt pad make application easier, helping you cover broad areas of glass and reach corners more effectively. Glaco DX is an excellent choice for drivers looking to improve rain repellency without the more involved application process of some long-term glass coatings.
Advanced water repellency: Helps rainwater bead up and move away from treated glass.
S.A.R.F. technology: Designed to create a smooth, strongly adhering water-repellent film with a quick finishing process.
Approximately 4 months of protection: Manufacturer-stated durability; actual results vary with weather, use, and maintenance.
Convenient swivel-head applicator: Adjusts to the glass surface for easier application.
Large square felt pad: Helps provide consistent coverage and reach glass corners.
Helps reduce contamination adhesion: The treated surface can make traffic film, snow, and frost easier to deal with.
Simple application process: Apply to clean, dry glass, allow it to dry for 5–10 minutes, then wipe with a tightly wrung-out damp towel.
110 ml bottle: A practical size for treating automotive glass.
For the best results, prepare the glass properly and follow the manufacturer's application instructions.
Step 1 – Clean and prepare the glass
Wash the glass thoroughly to remove dirt and dust, then dry it completely. For glass with stubborn traffic film, oily residue, water spots, or an existing coating, consider using a dedicated glass compound such as SOFT99 Glaco Compound Roll On before applying Glaco DX.
Step 2 – Prepare the applicator
Unscrew and remove the cap. Position the felt applicator against the glass and gently squeeze the bottle to allow the liquid to soak into the felt.
Step 3 – Apply evenly
Spread the product across the glass in a criss-cross pattern. Release more liquid as needed and ensure the entire intended area is covered without leaving gaps.
Step 4 – Allow the coating to dry
Leave the product to dry for approximately 5–10 minutes.
Step 5 – Wipe away the residue
Using a clean towel that has been dampened and tightly wrung out, wipe the glass to remove the remaining residue. Incomplete residue removal may cause windshield wiper judder.
Important application conditions: Do not apply in direct sunlight or to hot glass. If the temperature is below 10°C, avoid application or warm the glass using the vehicle's interior heater as directed by the manufacturer. Wet glass can compromise the result.
Clean treated glass regularly with a glass cleaner suitable for water-repellent coatings.
Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could prematurely wear the coating.
If water repellency decreases, clean and prepare the glass before reapplying as necessary.
If the glass has an older coating or persistent traffic film, proper surface preparation can help achieve more consistent results.
Monitor windshield wiper performance. If judder or streaking occurs, check for leftover product residue and inspect the wiper blades.
Water-repellent coatings do not replace windshield wipers or the need to maintain clear visibility in all weather conditions.
How long does SOFT99 Glaco DX last?
SOFT99 states that the water-repellent effect lasts approximately four months. Actual durability depends on weather, driving frequency, wiper use, cleaning methods, and surface preparation.
Can I apply Glaco DX to a dirty windshield?
No. The glass should be thoroughly cleaned and completely dry before application. Removing stubborn traffic film and old coatings beforehand can improve the result.
How long should I wait before wiping the product off?
Allow it to dry for 5–10 minutes, then wipe away the residue using a clean, damp, tightly wrung-out towel.
Can I use Glaco DX on side windows?
It is intended for glass surfaces. Follow the product label and manufacturer's directions, and avoid applying it to transparent plastic, including plastic headlight lenses, helmet visors, and wind guards.
Can I use it on the inside of my windshield?
No. Glaco DX is intended for exterior glass application, not interior glass.
Can I apply Glaco DX over an existing glass coating?
For the most reliable results, prepare the glass and remove incompatible or old coatings before application. SOFT99 recommends removing existing coatings or traffic film with an abrasive glass cleaner when needed.
Will Glaco DX eliminate the need for windshield wipers?
No. It helps water move off treated glass, but windshield wipers must remain in good working condition and should be used whenever necessary for safe visibility.
