Windex Fast Shine Foam is an aerosol-based cleaner that uses a high-cling surfactant delivery system in a 19 oz tin-plated steel canister. Designed specifically for vertical surfaces, the nozzle shears the liquid into a dense micro-bubble matrix. This increases the surface contact time of the solvents—Isopropanol and 2-Butoxyethanol—allowing them to work against grease and film more effectively than standard liquid droplets.
Specifications indicate the inclusion of a Quick-Dry Polymer additive, which is intended to increase the evaporation rate by about 15% compared to standard house-brand foams. Features include:
- High vertical adhesion to prevent liquid from seeping into wooden window frames.
- Direct-aim foam to minimize overspray and inhalation risks compared to fine-mists.
- Formula designed for emulsifying "outgassing" film often found on car windshields.
Practical use suggests that this foam is highly concentrated and can saturate low-GSM microfiber towels quickly; using a waffle-weave or huck towel can help prevent "ghosting" marks. Users should be aware that it contains ammonium-D and is not recommended for use on anti-glare coated electronics. To ensure long-term usability, avoid leaving the can unused for more than six months to prevent the surfactant from crystallizing in the actuator.
For a residue-free, ammonia-free alternative that is safe for all types of electronic screens and tints, the Invisible Glass Premium Cleaner is a highly recommended option.
