I noticed my T has perpetually "filmed" inside front (and rear) glass. Does this happen on all 992's or a function of the leather dash glue only? Only had for 7 months, but I'd say I get maybe a week or two before having to contort myself to clean inside. Also just woke up to a spidered corner of the driver's window... Headed to the shop tomorrow for them to take pictures and order a driver's door glass. Otherwise, this thing is fantastic!
I don’t have leather. Same window film problem. 15 months owned now. No more contorting after buying that thingy. Should have got it ages ago. Love my T, but hate the window haze and brake dust. 100% going with different pads later. Hopefully, dealer covers side window….🤨

the interior still gassing even after 7 and 15 months .
I had mine for about 7 weeks now and still gassing I thought it will stop gassing after few more weeks.....
I may need to ceramic coat the inside of the windshield
I’m in NYC metro (expensive location) and got quotes $3.K to $4.5K for 12 mil PPF front bumper, hood and fenders. Kept calling around and found shop owner I clicked with. Paid $1,500…so recommend keep shopping.
On another note, finally bought one of these
things to clean rear window. Also recommend. Cheap and worth every penny!
Pardon my ignorance; what's interior gassing mean?
...could mean a lot of things 💩. But in this case i think we're referring to what is also called outgassing and common with new cars. The interior materials let off something (chemicals?) into the air that sticks to the inside of the windows. Maybe part of that new car smell? I've never had to clean the inside of my windows so much though. And it's still going after 1 year, 2 months and ~4500 miles. I think it could also be associated with the LWG - as the haze builds up (or window fogs on a cool humid morning) it sticks less to the glass where the factory delivery stickers were. My go-to has always been invisible glass brand cleaner. I've used watered down IPA. Latest cleaning was with good 'ol Windex...will see how long this lasts.
Remember to use clean microfiber towels every time otherwise you'll end up smearing the muck around and not getting a really clean glass. I'm getting one of the things @ECNJ posted now too.
I have the "window thingy" and also bought some Rain-X cleaning pads that seem to do the trick well and prevent fogging. The "Little Speed Shop" at The Glen suggested I try it and it works.

I’ve had good results with Sprayway glass cleaner on other cars. Also you can leave a glass of distilled vinegar in the car overnight to take odors away
Yes, the original thread is loaded with useful and interesting information. What would be helpful (and appreciated by many of us) would be if a moderator would kindly make it a sticky, so it does not get lost as it shuffles its way down the queue.

Thanks!
I haven't noticed this at all in my car. Perhaps due to the tint?
