Re: Why use Rain Repellent?
Does it smear when you use your screenwash and wipers to clear the screen moe ?
RE: Why use Rain Repellent?
I too am a complete convert Moe. The DS boys had used Rain-X on my car early last year when giving it a clay and seal. I've since applied Autoglym LifeShine Glass Guard - unbelievable product, I'm a total convert :cool:

RE: Why use Rain Repellent?
I use wolfs glass guard myself. I'm not a huge fan of it on the windshield, but apply it to all of the other glass. I'd say I got close to 2 years out of one application on the side and rear windows and about 2 months on the front window the one time I applied it there.

Not really, it doesnt last forever mind you. You can get a rain-x screen wash that supposed to top up the effect....?

RE: Why use Rain Repellent?
I tried RainX a couple of times and found it smeared when I did use the wipers. Am I doing it wrong, or is there something better out there?
RE: Why use Rain Repellent?
You have to apply it to a perfectly clean window, leave it to dry for 10 minutes and then buff it off with a lot of elbow grease.

Getting a new windscreen fitted this week so may pop up to the mass if a bottle of this shit.
RE: Why use Rain Repellent?
To be brutally honest i get the same effect from any of the quick detailers that i use, and it lasts just as long. It sheets off the window passengers are always amazed.

Hi James,
I sent you Wax-Tec "Visor" which is a great glass cleaner and Hydrophobic sealant. I use this always now and have to say the products is very very good. If i'm not mistaken you used it on the house windows too :D :D.
With winter coming a product like this is a must, like the lads have said it saves on wiper usage for sure.
Hope this helps,
