  • Spray wax on windshield ??

    Can i use a spray wax on my windshield , I want the bread effect(wipers are fine), im driving long distance this Friday (Niagara falls) and it's calling for rain in the forecast, years ago I tried using the spray wax and the windshield became a little foggy so I stopped using it , thank you for your help folks !

    I've used Ultimate Quik Wax on my windows and windshield without any issues. Just make sure to buff it off pretty well.

    And yes - the glass beaded very well and made the water run off very quickly.

      I use D156 (bulk version of ultimate quik wax) on my glass. Have had no issues and it beads well. As stated just be sure to remove it all. Rainx is the other alternative.

            I wax all of my windows when I wax the cars using Ultimate Past Wax. Rarely have to use my wipers as the water beads and blows off. I tried RainX once and found it to be garbage and threw nearly a full bottle out.

              I have rainx but I don't bother with it.... it's just a another towel wasted.
              I D156 the entire car and it works just fine with me.

                I'm with Strife. UQW on the sides and rear. But RainX on the windshield. I found RainX stays totally clear if you apply it, let it dry to a haze, mist the windshield with water and then rub it down with a wad of paper towel. I don't use any of my MF towels with RainX!

                  I meant to add... I find that RainX lets the rain run off faster and at a lower speed that UQW

                    Use it the VERY SAME way.

                    In my experience, applying "wax" on the windshield has lead to some pretty bad smearing.

                      I use D156/UQW on my windshield, never a single problem with it. I am not a fan of RainX at all, I have found it destroys wiper blades. Your results may vary from mine.
