I've never heard of this product. If it's for sale in a particular part of the world then it might be worth adding that information to the article. Arcturus 15:26, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Glass Plus used to be in almost every grocery store cleaning aisle in Canada, but starting this year (2017) I simply can't find it anymore. It has disappeared from every store shelf, replaced in each case with a cheap generic glass cleaner from the store's own in-house brand. Almost all of these cheap alternatives contain ammonia (likely in an attempt to compete with Windex which also contains ammonia), whereas Glass Plus does not contain ammonia and this is the reason why I have always opted for it over Windex. I would love to know where to get Glass Plus today, but perhaps more importantly, especially for an encyclopedia like this, I would like to know WHY Glass Plus disappeared from all Canadian shelves, almost overnight, earlier this year. Did it become unpopular due to some public story? (Google search doesn't turn any up.) Did it run afoul of Canadian govt regulations in some way? Did some patent expire, encouraging every single grocery store to remove Glass Plus from its shelves to try to drive business to its own in-house Windex alternative? I suspect that last explanation is correct, but it's impossible to verify without more information about recently expired glass cleaning patents, which I have been unable to find. The reasons behind the sudden and near-universal disappearance of Glass Plus from Canadian (and perhaps other countries') stores is exactly the kind of information one should read about in Wikipedia, and it's the information I came to this page to find. Sadly, the info isn't here. But it should be. 45.72.162.231 (talk) 14:53, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"to fragrant the product"

Here "fragrant" - which as far as I'm concerned can only be an adjective - is being used as a verb, something I've never seen before in English. I hesitate to change it myself, as someone may protest it's now perfectly normal in (say) North America (my version of English is British). But the (American) Merriam-Webster dictionary only defines it as a adjective, which is what I'd expect. Perhaps change "fragrant" to "perfume" (which can be used as a verb), or else "add fragrance to"?213.127.210.95 (talk) 13:44, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Other names

I think this product is called 'Glassex' in the Netherlands, because it looks like each other and it's from the same company. Not really sure though, because it's hard to find. Bits! (talk) 10:41, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
