How to properly apply rain-x

[koen_dr]

Well, I use rain-x, but have seen a change, and want to reapply it. I bought a new bottle ( apparently new formula ) in the shop yesterday and want to go at it tonight...



Car is washed and dry. Do I use for instance Jeffs Prime first to completely strip the previous stuff, and then apply as the bottle says?

for me, I just use some rubbing alcohol to clean the area and then do a pass with a glass cleaner (stoners invisible glass). Let it dry a bit and then apply the rain x. I do a second coat of rainx after a few minutes. Then buff off the excess.

Just make sure the glass is clean and then reply it. No need to strip the old off.

i agree. i always do two applications before wiping with a "almost" damp towel.:bigups

i do mine before a wash ...clean the glass with your favorite glass cleaner, then apply the rain x with a small clean cloth or kitchen paper towel



wash the car as normal and dry the glass with a drying towel....streak free glass !!

I stopped using Rain-X when I started using Clearkote`s Quikshine. Cleans the glass and makes the water bead up and roll off in the rain with one easy step. Lasts longer too.



I always had a hard time getting Rain-X to buff off streak free that I was frustrated using it. :nixweiss

I found the easiest way is to apply before my wash and don`t remove. Wash as regular with my wash mitt and everything is fine. No streaks...

Why don`t you call ClearKote Quik Shine (http://www.clearkote.com/Clearkoteweb/QuikShine.htm) and ask them.

Do products like these really make a difference? The only time i would find it useful is when it`s raining but my car came equipped with windshield wipers (yes i`m being a smartass). But does it make that much of a difference when it`s really pouring or something?

I don`t know what kind of car you drive

but I am sure it does not have wippers on all the glass!



yes it helps

but any sealant will work

I like the Klasse twins then AW(sorry no free samples)
