Does Ceramic Spray Work on Windshields and Side Glass?
Ceramic sprays are known for protecting paint—but can you use them on glass too?
Yes—when applied correctly, Tough As Shell works great on windshields, windows, and side mirrors.
Benefits of Using Ceramic Spray on Glass
- ✅ Dramatic water-beading in the rain
- ✅ Easier to clean bugs, dirt, and bird droppings
- ✅ Reduced fog and glare buildup
- ✅ Safer driving visibility in bad weather
Where It Works Best
- Side windows – water beads and rolls off quickly
- Rear glass – improves visibility and reduces grime buildup
- Windshield – yes, but apply with caution (see below)
How to Apply Tough As Shell to Glass
- Clean glass thoroughly with a streak-free glass cleaner
- Mist Tough As Shell onto a microfiber towel, not directly on the glass
- Wipe across the glass in straight lines
- Flip to a clean towel and buff until clear
Use Caution on the Windshield
Because wiper blades create friction, you may notice:
- ✔️ Temporary chatter if the glass isn’t cleaned well first
- ✔️ Slight haze if too much product is used
Pro tip: Apply lightly and evenly, and buff thoroughly. Reapply every few weeks or after major storms.
