Thanks, Kooz. I've been using Stoner's IG for years and will have to pick some of the new stuff up.

Kooz, is it hard to remove like the original Rain-X is? I used Rain-X for years but quit using it some time ago because I got tired of spending so much time trying to get the haze off the window. If it wasn't hard to remove, I would certainly purchase a bottle of this.

It is not at all hard to remove. It's as easy as regular Stoner's IG.

You also mentioned tinted windows and you are correct, this product is for exterior glass only. It says so on the back of the bottle.

I've had good results with IG, so I'll have to give this a shot.

Haven't seen the new IG for sale in Canada yet, but the regular IG is a blessing from the Detailing Gods.

I just use UQW, though perhaps if I come across this for a decent price I will look into it.

I've started to use it... I still use my Meguiar's Glass Cleaner Concentrate for the interior windows. I like this product as it produces streak free and clear glass and also repels water very well. Definitely a must for rainy days.

I like rainx for the way it prevents ice from forming as a thick sheet. I can't wait to see how UQW and IG+ perform in that aspect.

...it doesnt say its tint safe, which is big to me as i just tinted the windows of my truck with aftermarket tint film in January.

Why would you want to use a rain repellent glass cleaner on the inside of the glass? This would be an exterior glass only cleaner. Doesn't need to be tint safe.

After such a good review, I may have to try it. Thanks for the write up.

Re: Anyone try the new Stoner's IG with Rain Repellent?

Well I finally went out and got myself a bottle of this stuff at Target. I like it. It's works just as well at cleaning the glass as the regular Stoner's IG and is much easier to use than Rain-X.

I've been using NXT Glass Cleaner for about a year now, and as others have said it seems to have a slight amount of rain repellent in it. This new Stoner's is very similar to the NXT but it has a little bit more repellent. The rain repelled of the windshiled very nicely (every bit as good as any Rain-X product) last weekend while driving out on the highway during a thunderstorm but unfortunately after awhile I started to experience some wiper chatter, but not an annoying amount.

Anyway I give this product a thumbs up and would definitely recommend it. You can find it at Target for around $5 or $6.

If i try it i will strart with fresh glass, meaning I will clay it and apply Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner to remove any NXT Glass Cleaner or UQW residue.

Re: Anyone try the new Stoner's IG with Rain Repellent?

I've tried it and it seems to streak the glass. Durablity of the rain repellant is just so-so.
