You will need a few materials for this hack.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Fine steel wool<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Rainx<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Rags<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Invisible Glass<\/li>\r\n \t<li>One Sock<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nIn circular motions, for 5 to 10 minutes, firmly polish the entire windshield. Then, clean it with a rag soaked in Rainx, being very careful not to get it on the vehicle\u2019s paint. Once it is dry, wipe it down with a rag soaked with water. Using Rainx again, soak the sock and use it to cover the windshield wipers. Finish off the process with a coat of Invisible Glass!\r\n<h2><strong>Tip 2: Small Chip Repair<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_5141\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5141\" style=\"width: 428px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5141 \" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/httpf.tqn_.comyautorepair1SaIA-add-resin.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"Source: httpf.tqn.comyautorepair1SaIA-add-resin.jpg\" width=\"428\" height=\"324\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/httpf.tqn_.comyautorepair1SaIA-add-resin.jpg.jpg 258w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/httpf.tqn_.comyautorepair1SaIA-add-resin.jpg-80x60.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 428px) 100vw, 428px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5141\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: httpf.tqn.comyautorepair1SaIA-add-resin.jpg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nChips in the windshield are not only annoying but they can also lead to long, disrupting cracks.

You can take care of this aggravation with Cola and a towel. All you have to do is pour the cola over the glass. The towel should be stretched across the bottom of the windshield to protect the hood paint. Then wash the stickiness off.
