  • Rain X? Windsheild only or all windows?

    When/If you apply rainx to your window(s) do you just do the front windsheild or do you apply it to all the windows?

    I tend to do all windows, but am curious as to what you guys do.

                  I dont use it on my rear window. I noticed the beading of water makes the defrosters not work as well.

                    The water will still run off easier. It is still easier to see through when it is tight beads than a "film" of water, for lack of a better word.

                      All of the above! Side windows, sunroof, mirrors, headlights.

                        Never use it. Rain-X is something I think of as being one of my fathers car products, similar to Armour-All.

                        One of the few non-meguiars products I have on my shelf is Clear Rain, made ny Unelko. It has a dual purpose. One is as a water repellant, the other is a glass polish.

                        The glass polish quotient of it is outstanding.
                        My Expedition has 122,000 miles worth of tiny chips and abbrasions due to pebbles, sand etc, that have "pocked" the windshield. This results in refractions in the glass. Rain Clear seals the chips and gives it a smooth surface. Instead of seeing all the tiny imperfections, I see clearer glass.
                        No wiper chattering. Lasts long. Water repellancy is as good or better than Rain-X, and was actually created by the same man who patented -RainX.

                        The glass polish aspect of this product is what impresses me the most. It gives our cars new car showroom shine. It just completes the look to have a nicely polished and detailed car, and glass all around that also looks polished.

                          I replaced Rain X with UQD and UQW.
                          But I use all the Products on all the Windows.
                          It really does help when driving and drying.

                            works very nicely, sometimes i dont even have to turn the windshield wipers on when it rains.

                              It is Really Easy to Dry.
                              My Dad Talks about When He is On The Highway, and people have their windshield wipers on as fast as they go and he has them at the medium speed and he can see just fine!!!!
