Anyone use Rain-X?

Been using Rain X for years but I just ordered Car Pro FlyBy 30 to try out

 

Rain-x is great until you use your wipers a lot. Going to try car wax and see if that's more durable.

 

I love Rain-X and have used both the yellow bottle and the washer fluid. The only problem I have with the product is if you get a chip in your windshield. The last time I got a chip and called the local glass repair company to do their standard chip repair process (to prevent a future crack), I got a rude awakening. The guy cleaned the area in and around the chip, then tried to apply the crack fix. No dice. He then asked me if I used Rain-X. Since I did, he said I was SOL. The product apparently gets down in the crack and prevents the epoxy from bonding - no matter how well you try to remove it. Other than that, I love the stuff.

 

I had the same thing happen. But it was Aquapel rather than rainX. Repair didn't work.

 

I rain x makes wipers what apply rain x as you use them. When the wipers I got from work wear out I'm gonna buy a set

How you know I use this

 

I have been using on my 2017 Sport. It works great. It has been raining a lot in So Cal lately. I have put 2 coats on and it has really improved my night rain visibility.

 

Been using RainX for decades.
Best results, clay bar your windshield first, then apply two coats....let dry about 10 mins. Buff off with a microfiber cloth. Reapply 2 coats every 3 months unless you have had a lot of rain.

For the interior glass, best glass cleaner, actually great for any kind of glass including mirrors....awesome stuff:

I just used Rain X car soap and it worked as advertised. Also it foamed up nicely.

I do suggest not removing the foil seal under the cap when you first open it. Instead just poke a hole in the foil seal with a key. This soap is really low viscosity so it squirts out easily.

The only drawback is that it leaves your hands slippery after you wash a car.

 

I feel like Rain-X makes my wipers skip more and doesn't really last that long. I swapped to Aquapel and have been very happy. I applied it about 3 months ago and it still works.

 

I’m AMAZED by how long Aquapel lasts. Ive seen effects a year. Crazy longevity.
