Don't get me wrong, I really like the liquid glass, but I was wondering the other day how does one remove it? On the back of the can, it says something about sanding... I think thats a little extreme.

You could try alachol but ai would not recommend that.

The only way that will remove LG is to use a buffer and buffing compound.

Dish soap will remove wax, but Liquid Glass is a sealant, not a wax. They basically do the same thing, but a sealant is synthetic, and a wax is natural.

Because it basically does the same thing as wax. Many detail pros think that a sealant doesn't give the warm look that a true carnuba wax does though. A sealant will last much longer then a wax on the other hand, six months or more for a good one, when a wax will last a week to a month.

Also, in the south, it gets hot enough to literally melt a wax off of a car, so sealants are used more then wax for those in the know.

Many people will actually refer to a sealant as a wax, but if it is synthetic, it is a sealant and not a wax. Not a big deal, and most people wouldn't know the difference, but now you know

LG is an EXCELLENT sealant/protectant that can simulate a 'bogus' clearcoat for about 6 months. It's also great over good-condition factory clear.

It's ALSO great as a sealer under your favorite wax, but many of us here use LG alone. I do that, and I'm quite pleased with it.

See 'long-term wax test' in this section. I moved it over from BC. (probably on the last page of this section).
