Interesting test of windshield water repellents...

[BIMGuy]

I have always wondered if RainX was still the best option for rain repellent, and it seems like that is the case when cost vs performance is accounted for. I am interested to hear from you crazy detailer guys as to what you think about this test and if you have similar thoughts.

The video is kind of long at 18 mins, but put the playback speed at 1.5X and it goes pretty quickly and you still get all the info...

Thoughts???

I simply wax mine... been doing that for 30 years and have never had an issue. Once I get above 45mph it sheets off faster than the wipers can remove it.

Same. Wax. The wipers glide easily, and it makes your glass look fantastic.

Clean with 0000 steel wool then wax…works better than anything sold specifically to repel rain.
