I use it and it keeps them clear for a few months before you have to redo the process. It's a good temporary fix until you buy new ones.

Microfiber towels are key when detailing... using terry towels and such leave dust and potential scratches if you use it too hard. They're good to use for cleaning glass, interior, exterior, wheels, literally anything. Wal Mart has cheap microfiber towels that work very well.
I also recommend buying a California Car Duster... I use it every morning to get rid of dust that's sitting on my car. It helps your car stay cleaner longer, since dust builds up really quickly. |

also for those people who love to shine their tires (like me) ... i recommend this
it lasts hella long, what i do is after a car wash and cleaning the tires a bit, i spray some on wait like 5-10min and spray em again.. and they last for like a week maybe longer.. love the way it looks
also pepboys usually has this can on sale and autozone sometimes

| How do you get rid of water spots? I leave my car outside most of the time and the sprinklers gets it wet. Now I have water spots that I can't remove by just washing the car. |

^^^ Use this after a good wash
Water spots are just mineral build up on your car
