Two coats on the windscreen and rain just rolls straight off at 80 km/h. Wipers are almost unnecessary now on the highway.

Precision Glass Protection
Rain doesn't stand a chance at speed
Soft99 Glaco Jet Strong bonds a tight hydrophobic layer directly onto your glass, so rain beads up instantly and sheets clear once you're moving. Less wiping, less glare, and a windscreen that stays cleaner between washes.
Why Glaco Jet Strong
Everything a glass coating should do
Purpose-built for clarity, safety, and lasting water repellency.
-
Tight Beading at Speed
Water beads hard and sheets off cleanly at moderate to high driving speeds, reducing time your wipers need to be on.
-
Improved Visibility
The hydrophobic film reduces glare and visual scatter in rain, fog, and low-light driving conditions.
-
Direct Glass Bond
The formula bonds to the glass surface itself rather than sitting on top, giving the coating real staying power.
-
Wiper Compatible
Once buffed off properly, the coating does not cause wiper judder or squeaking under normal operation.
Glaco Jet Strong vs. Generic Water Repellent
Not all glass sealants are built the same
A lot of general-purpose glass repellents offer basic beading but fall short when it counts - in heavy rain at speed, or in low-light glare situations. Here's how Glaco Jet Strong measures up against a typical budget alternative.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Bonds directly to glass surface | Yes | No |
| Effective beading and sheeting at driving speed | Yes | No |
| Reduces glare in rain and fog | Yes | Yes |
| Compatible with standard wiper blades | Yes | Yes |
| No machine applicator required | Yes | Yes |
| Engineered specifically for automotive glass | Yes | No |
Built for Daily Conditions
Japanese glass chemistry trusted by professionals
Soft99 has been the benchmark for automotive glass care in Japan for decades. Glaco Jet Strong brings that same engineering to any detailer's kit - simple enough for a quick maintenance coat, durable enough to matter on a vehicle driven in real conditions every day.

Good product, though it does need a properly clean surface first - I got light streaking the first time because I skipped the glass cleaner step. Second attempt after a proper decon was flawless. Packaging arrived in perfect condition from Detailer SA.

Clear glass, tight beading, zero smear. Applied two coats on a Saturday and haven't thought about my wipers since.
Questions
Frequently asked
How do I apply Soft99 Glaco Jet Strong?
Spray a light, even coat onto clean, dry glass. Allow the product to flash - you'll see it haze slightly - then buff off the residue with a clean microfibre cloth. For best results, work one panel at a time to avoid the product drying too far before you can buff it off.
Which surfaces is this product safe to use on?
Glaco Jet Strong is formulated specifically for glass surfaces - windscreens, side windows, rear glass, and wing mirrors. Keep it off painted panels, rubber seals, and plastic trim, as it is not designed for those substrates.
How long should I allow it to flash before buffing?
Flash time varies with temperature and humidity, but typically a minute or two is sufficient for the product to haze and begin bonding. Don't leave it to dry completely hard before buffing - you want the residue to lift cleanly without excessive effort.
Can I apply two coats, and does it make a difference?
Yes, and it's recommended. Two coats laid back to back will deepen the beading response and extend the durability of the coating noticeably. Allow the first coat to flash and buff before applying the second.
How durable is the coating and how often should I reapply?
Durability depends on driving frequency, car wash habits, and weather exposure. As a guide, heavy daily drivers or vehicles washed frequently will see shorter intervals between applications than vehicles used sparingly. Reapply when you notice the beading response weakening or water beginning to cling to the glass rather than sheeting off.
Will it affect my wiper blades?
No. Glaco Jet Strong is formulated to be compatible with standard wiper blade operation. Once buffed off properly, the surface remains smooth and does not cause judder or squeaking under normal wiper use.
Does it need to be cured, or is it ready to use straight after application?
The product does not require a long post-application cure window. Once buffed off, the hydrophobic layer is active. That said, allowing the glass to stay dry for a short period after application before driving into heavy rain will let the bond set more fully.
Can I use this on top of other glass treatments or ceramic coatings?
Glaco Jet Strong is best applied directly to clean, bare glass after a thorough decon, including a light polish or glass-specific cleaner if the surface has old product residue on it. Layering over an existing ceramic glass coating is not recommended as adhesion will be compromised. Strip old product first for the best result.
