    Has any one used it and, if so, is it all that the marketing hype says it is?

    Thanks!

    It is a nice product. I use it on all my glass except the windshield (windshield still has Aquapel on it).

    Very easy to use, and a little goes a long way. Plus Adam's stands behind their products, and has great customer service.

    Does this stuff bead/repel any better than a regular sealant or synthetic wax?

    In all honesty, Aquapel just seems better to me, at least for the windshield. I have used Adam's on a couple of customer's cars, and one of them said that they did like it.

    It's not perfect, but for the cost and how much is needed per application, it's pretty decent.

    I have it and love it! way better than rain-x it actually last even after using your wiper blades. I have used it on a few customers cars and they really like it too

    it's pretty good. I use it on my side windows only. I really don't want to use aquapel on windows that really don't need it. I only use aquapel in the front windshield and rear window.

    Has anybody used Klasse AIO on the windshield? I've read pretty good things on it. I already own it so would save the cost of purchasing Aquapel or a similar product. It might not fully compare to Aquapel, but if it's close I'd prefer to use it over buying a new product.

    it's pretty decent, but it's no aquapel. I use it as a booster/maintenance product after applying aquapel or adam's glass sealant.

    RainX is the only sealant I have ever used on my windshield, but I'm not crazy about the momentary haze/ film that shows after the wipers make a pass. Does the Adams sealant do this as well or not? If yes, is that just something that occurs when using any glass sealant?

    rain-x doesn't even compare with aquapel. Haze/film is a common characteristic of Rain-X IMO.

    I do not use anything special, but water rolls up the windshield like something special is applied. I just keep them clean by scrubbing with a terry applicator and Spray Way glass cleaner. I will clay sometimes.

    So Aquapel and Adams have no haze then?

    domino Welcome to Detailing

    i havent tried the adams sealant, but i dont really buy into the dedicated "glass sealant" products

    its a bit like dedicated wheel protection products

    and in the end, regular sealants like Z-CS, Opti-Seal work just as well, if not better

    I've used the Adams glass sealant and it wasn't too bad. A little pita to apply and remove, well more so for removal. I am just used to Aquapel and how easy that is to put on and take off. The Adams is a good product but I'll stick with Aquapel. Adams is way cheaper to use because of how many applications you can get with it vs Aquapel. Either way they are both good products.
