Long-lasting treatment repels rain and snow, reduces glare, improves nighttime visibility.

According to developer PPG Industries, Inc., Aquapel's advanced fluoropolymer-based formula lasts for months of normal vehicle use and cleaning - six times longer than silicone-based products. The treatment, which is professionally applied, repels rain and snow from auto glass, reduces glare, and improves driving visibility, especially during rainy nighttime conditions. It also makes ice, snow, insects and road dirt easier to clean from auto glass.
"Your customers will notice a visible, above-the-hood difference with Aquapel," says Brian Kanterman of Aquapel. "Once they've tried it, they'll keep coming back."
With the growing consumer popularity of rain repellent glass treatments, the service line has become a key area for automotive service centers to build profit potential and encourage repeat business.
Kanterman recommends providing a complimentary or discounted initial application, as a "thank you" for auto body repair and service business. Customers can return a few months later for a new treatment. "The reapplication timing coincides nicely with regular service work, and it will bring customers back to your shop," says Kanterman.
"Maintaining clear visibility is a key factor in safe driving," says Chuck Schwarting, vice president of National Safety Consulting Services, Inc., a firm specializing in driver training and safety education. The cost of treatment is insignificant, compared to its safety benefit."
Aquapel installs in just minutes to a clean, dry windshield, with no buffing or hazy residue, and less time and hassle than silicone-based formulations. The unique, user-friendly applicator fits all vehicle makes and models.
