Acoustic glass????

[Paluss]

I noticed tonight will driving home from the gym in rain at night time weather a weird reflection on the windshield. First I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, then I thought it was a reflection off the dash, but no. I am seeing at least 6 circles that look like a grapefruit or round speakers across the top and bottom of the windshield. This has to be part of the. Acoustic glass? Has anyone else notice this?? Pretty cool if that is what it is

Those are marks from the suction cups used to mount the windshield during assembly at the plant. This has been discussed elewhere. Use a strong cleaner on the windshield to wipe off the marks.

Those are suction cup marks from the machine they use to install the windshield.

Yes, marks from the suction cups during the application of the windshield. My wifes car has this and 8 years later I still cant get them off. I have scrubbed it with all sorts of stuff. It really only shows up in high humidity, but I would still like to get rid of them. For those that have had success, any recommendation on how to clean?

I have the same issue on my JL, have not been able to get rid of them. Never was able on any of my JKs either.

In a few days, when you have to replace a cracked windshield, they’ll be gone :cwl:

You've got that right, they are practically disposable, I've probably averaged two windshields a year for the past 20 years. Maybe it's me and not the utterly flat windshield?

The windshield says Acoustic on it

Thanks, I didn't notice that on the image someone posted online. I will take another look at mine, looks like I got hosed by Jeep. Imagine that.

It's right at the bottom corner of the windshield driver side and by steering wheel
