Eh...maybe I am wrong here but I doubt it's all that great.

Water will not do a good job cleaning grime or other crap that gets flung from the road onto your windshield. You wouldn't clean your wheels or paint with just water and expect it to be clean with just a wipe, the same principal applies.

I also don't see how it will dry without streaking, if used as they claim. I have cleaned a lot of glass and it must be perfect for me to feel good about it. I would not trust water to get it done. There's a reason the real detailers use 2 or more microfiber cloths to clean glass, you won't get it streak free with one used by itself.

Like I said, maybe I am wrong.

*edit*
-what other glass cleaners have you used that didn't work well? You say "all these" but don't note any.

I received a call from a Jim Browning Jr., from Corsa Performance, this morning. He tells me that he heard of my skepticism(not in any type of rude way or in a confrontational way) and would love for me to try the Corsa Cloth myself.

After a pleasant conversation with Mr. Browning Jr. he gets my address and says he will be shipping me a few to try out.

Can you find a more desirable manner to handle doubt than to let someone experience the product? What a fantastic way to go about things! I think a lot of Mr. Browning Jr. for taking the time to find my phone number(when the internet is full of nobody's and anonymous Joes...I am no different) and call me personally to convince me he sells a quality product.

Once I use the Corsa Cloth I will report back what I discover. I can tell you now that if I say they are good, they are good. I am incredibly nit-picky and expect perfection from glass.

Jim, thanks for taking the time to call and put some substance behind your product.

I am always looking for a better glass towel. I am interested to hear your thoughts on this.

Without some sort of cleaner on it I just don’t see them working unless the glass is already pretty clean. If the glass has any oils, hand prints etc, it is going to take some sort of cleaner.

I received the cloths Friday from Jim. I've not had a chance to use them yet. As soon as I do I will post up.

I have heard a lot of good things about Corsa, as I am a Clevelander myself. My good friends Z06 had an amazing exhaust on it, made by Corsa. Anyone know if they are on the 6?

McBrendan-
Give Jim a call at CORSA if you would ever like a tour of their place.
I have been helping out on a few sites...and since you are in town, it would be easy for you to get over and meet him.

I wouldn't use that towel with spray chemical on the paint surface because it would smear dust and scratch along the way I wipe. Have anyone use it?

I've not had a chance to use the cloth on glass yet. The weather has sucked here and the few days I've had with a few jobs I could not chance taking too long.

I did get to use it on some stainless steel appliances though. It worked fantastic on SS.
