    Stumbled upon this product in the Eastwood Co. website and bought a kit. The kit inlcudes the Rhodite powder compound and a thick felt polisher buffer that you will have to connect to your variable rotary tool. Recommended speed is from 600-800 RPM only.

    You basically mix the rhodite compound with water and apply it to the windshied/glass. You also constantly spray water while buffing the windshield.

    The product effectively removed all sorts of minor scratches left by the wiper, all acid and water marks, and leaves an impressive sparkle in my windshield.

    tested it in the windshield of the pajero which is full of slight scratches and haze left by the wiper. the sparkle is very impressive!

    the rhodite i bought is the least aggressive of the three types of rhodite compounds available and is intended to polish and take out slight scratches and acid marks.

    the two other types available are meant to really take out medium and severe scratches and haze.

    check this site out na lang:

    the kit is about USD 30.00 which will last you a long time depending on the volume you will be working on. My wife bought it for me when she was in the U.S. two months ago.
