Rain Clear?

[DAC17]

Anyone try this new product yet? Supposedly made by the originator of RainX, after he sold that product to a bigger company.

Got some on order, should be here the end of the week. If all goes well I`ll get it on this weekend.:sosad

I just received mine but I haven`t tried it yet. I also bought the glass cleaner and the anti-fog. I like RainX and this is suppose to be better. I haven`t had much luck with anti-fog products but I will give this new a try from Rain Clear. Wes

I used it yesterday and I like. I also used the scrub which is pretty cool. I applied a couple drops on a terry applicator and rubbed it into the winsheild until it was almost clear. Waited a few minutes and wiped off with an MF. Came clean and window looked great, no smearing, I think I am going to like it. The scrub would be easier used while washing the car when the windshield is wet.

If not, what does the product packaging look like? I`d like to look for it in the Meijer by me.

Thanks. I think I`ve seen that before. Just never took note of the name.

Well I got mine and it went on like Vaseline and came off about the same. Maybe I used too much but it too me over 30min to get it where I could see out the windshield. I had to spray with water and went through 3 towels before I got there.

Now I didn`t use their pre-cleaner but I did start with clean windows, IG. If my results change when I use it on the ladies daily driver I`ll post again.

Mine went on and came off like wheel bearing grease.

Doesn`t seem like a pleasant product to apply. I wonder if the initial effort will pay off in performance and durability. I think I`ll wait on your follow-ups before trying this stuff out. My Rain-X is fine for now.

I tried both the cleaner and sealant a couple of days ago.



I applied the cleaner twice to driver`s side of windshield, once to passenger side. The glass was wet, and the cleaner did a good job, but after rinsing, on the driver`s side, the water remaining showed the path of the wiper, like there was still some residue left.



Anyway, dried the glass and applied the sealant. Spread on two dime size dollops of product with a waffle weave towel (only towel I had left that was clean). Let dry for 3 minutes. Product was very difficult to remove on glass where wiper stops its movement and reverses. Finally had to rub with wet waffle MF, followed by dry MF. This seemed to do the trick.



Over all, applying and removing was harder than applying the old Rain-x.



It rained this morning. Beading was ok, still needed to use wipers. AIO does a better job of cleaning and beading, IMHO.



Glad I tried it, not a bad product, but would not buy it again:nixweiss
