The Soft99 Glaco De Cleaner is a glass cleaner that builds a water-repellent layer while it cleans. The alcohol-resin formula pulls off dirt, bug splatter and greasy film streak-free and leaves a light hydrophobic effect from 60 km\/h — works inside and out.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSoft99 Glaco De Cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e is the all-rounder of the Glaco range for regular glass cleaning. Unlike ordinary glass cleaners that just clean and then flash off, the De Cleaner leaves a thin water-repellent layer on the glass. The formula is built on a mix of cleaning alcohols and water-repellent resin — the alcohols cut through grease, fingerprints, bug splatter and road film, while the resin stays behind after you wipe as an invisible protective layer. With 400 ml in the spray bottle, the De Cleaner gives you enough for weeks of regular glass cleaning. The big advantage in the Glaco system: the De Cleaner is designed as an in-between cleaner that doesn't attack existing Glaco sealants — on the contrary, it cleans the sealed surface gently and tops up the beading. It's also ideal for the inside of the windscreen and the side windows — just spray it onto a microfibre cloth and wipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning and water repellency in one pass.\u003c\/strong\u003e The De Cleaner cleans the glass and builds a water-repellent layer at the same time.

A quick clean with the De Cleaner every one to two weeks keeps the glass clear without attacking the sealant — and the extra beading tops up the existing coating a touch.

The alcohol component does the actual cleaning: it dissolves greasy dirt like fingerprints, road film and bug splatter and flashes off without residue. The resin component stays behind after you wipe as a thin film on the glass and forms the water-repellent layer. This film is much thinner than with a dedicated sealant like the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-roll-on-large-scheibenversiegelung-120ml\"\u003eGlaco Roll On Large\u003c\/a\u003e or the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-dx-scheibenversiegelung-110ml\"\u003eGlaco DX\u003c\/a\u003e, but it gives you a measurable hydrophobic effect from around 60 km\/h. The key advantage of this formula: the cleaning alcohols are chosen so they don't lift existing Glaco sealants. Ordinary glass cleaners — especially ones with aggressive surfactants or ammonia — can strip hydrophobic coatings layer by layer. The De Cleaner only cleans the contaminants sitting on the sealant, without touching the sealant itself. That makes it the only glass cleaner in the Glaco system explicitly recommended for looking after sealed glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing the Glaco De Cleaner properly — outside and inside glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow you \u003cstrong\u003euse the Glaco De Cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e depends on where you're working. For the outside of the windscreen: give the bottle a quick shake, spray the De Cleaner evenly onto the glass from 15 to 20 centimetres away and spread it in straight passes with a clean microfibre cloth. Then buff off with the dry side of the cloth or a second cloth to avoid streaks. For the inside of the windscreen: spray the De Cleaner onto a microfibre cloth — not straight onto the glass, to keep overspray off the dashboard and the vents. Then wipe the inside glass in straight, overlapping passes. The inside glass picks up a lot of greasy and nicotine film that badly hurts visibility in low sun — the De Cleaner pulls that film off reliably. The same technique works for the side windows. One common mistake: using too much product. Two or three sprays per half of the glass are plenty — too much product leaves a thicker film that can streak as it dries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBeading and protection — what the De Cleaner delivers as a glass cleaner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ebeading from the Glaco De Cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e is a nice bonus, but no substitute for a full windscreen sealant. The water-repellent resin layer kicks in from around 60 km\/h — on motorway runs raindrops visibly clear faster than on untreated glass. In town traffic under 60 km\/h the effect is less pronounced. The beading lasts a few days to a week — but it's renewed every time you clean. For comparison: the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-q-75ml\"\u003eGlaco Q\u003c\/a\u003e as a 2-in-1 product gives you a much stronger beading effect from 45 km\/h with six to eight weeks of durability. The De Cleaner is primarily a glass cleaner with a bonus sealant, not the other way round. Its main job is streak-free cleaning while protecting existing sealants. On unsealed glass it at least gives you a light base of protection and can work as a low-commitment way into the world of glass sealing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGlaco De Cleaner vs ordinary glass cleaners — the difference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGlaco De Cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e differs from ordinary supermarket \u003cstrong\u003eglass cleaners\u003c\/strong\u003e in three key ways. First: ordinary glass cleaners only clean — the De Cleaner cleans and seals. Second: most standard glass cleaners contain surfactants and sometimes ammonia, which attack hydrophobic coatings. If you've treated your car with a Glaco sealant and then use an ordinary glass cleaner, you break the sealant down a bit with every clean. The De Cleaner is formulated specifically to look after the sealant. Third: the streak-free finish. The De Cleaner's alcohol base flashes off without residue, while a lot of standard cleaners leave mineral residue or surfactant film that shows up as streaks in low sun. For drivers who don't run a Glaco sealant, the De Cleaner is still a step up from a standard glass cleaner — the light water repellency and the better streak-free finish are noticeable even without a sealant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho the Glaco De Cleaner is ideal for — buying advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSoft99 Glaco De Cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e belongs in every car-care kit as your standard \u003cstrong\u003eglass cleaner\u003c\/strong\u003e. For Glaco users it's practically essential: it's the only glass cleaner that's guaranteed not to attack existing Glaco sealants and even freshens them up a touch. If you've got an \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-ultra-glaco-scheibenversiegelung-70ml\"\u003eUltra Glaco\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-dx-scheibenversiegelung-110ml\"\u003eGlaco DX\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/detailing1.de\/products\/soft99-glaco-roll-on-large-scheibenversiegelung-120ml\"\u003eGlaco Roll On Large\u003c\/a\u003e on the glass, you should only use the De Cleaner or clean water for in-between cleaning — anything else shortens the life of the sealant. It's excellent for the inside glass too: it pulls off the typical greasy film that builds up from dashboard off-gassing and fingerprints, and leaves a crystal-clear, streak-free surface.
