For amateurs like myself I like how you often demonstrate on your own vehicles to show how the products are used. I first bought NuFinish after watching your tutorial and just bought this as well because it is very easy to apply after learning from your video and very affordable at my local hardware store.

    I've been using Rain-X for years. Before Rain-X came out my friends and I used to wax our windshields. Several years ago I tried that NXT wax which I loved on my vehicle on half of my windshield and Rain-X on the other half just to see how good Rain-X was compared to the old school days of us waxing the windshield. Rain X won hands down. Thanks for the tip on the damp microfiber. I don't know why I didn't think of it. 🙄 I either spray my car down afterwards or do it right before I go through a car wash. Not to mention the link to the big towel from chemical guys. 👍

    I've been using Rain-X a long time and have found that after the application stage you can just wash the windshield with water from a hose, or in my case I usually use a spray bottle of distilled water so it won't leave spots, and wipe it down with a soaking wet shop towel; basically remove what you just put on; except the molecular layer that's adhered to the glass stays and works just like in your video. It's a little quicker and easier than your method and there's never any visible haze left.

Don’t have to apply pressure to get it off so reduces chances for swirl marks. And it’s cheap. Keeps the dirt and water off my daily driver and it’s super fast and easy to do.

    I bought some raInx and wanted to watch several videos to get the full scope of how to apply it and how it performs. This guy just convinced me to not use it on my front windshield because near the end of the video he said aplying car wax to the glass does the same thing. Many years ago when I could see a lot better than I see now I put car wax on my front windshield and all my other glass. I could hardly wait for it to wear off and stop working. At night in rain with the wipers going wax caused street lights and other vehicle lights to make such a glare that I was nearly blinded by that glare. It was especially bad at intersections and where there was a street light right at the intersetion. I had to go really slow and creep to make the turn and stay in the right place in the road to keep from looking like a drunk driver. No I wasn't drinking and driving. The car wax was OK in side windows and the rear glass. Since I already have have the rainx I'll use it on all the glass except the front windshield. Maybe that's just my experience. If so, OK.

    Good evening JB. Hopefully you are still paying attention to old vids. I applied RainX to my Outback, and afterwards I got terrible wiper chatter. The wipers were basically sticking to the windshield! I have since tried to remove the RainX with Alcohol, Dawn, Vinegar, Bartender's friend etc. They are much better, but what I do not understand, is why they began chattering and sticking to the windshield after applying the RainX. I washed the windshield first, even used a magic eraser to help get off some grime. I applied 2 coats, but I sprayed more on my towel before doing the second side, so I am thinking maybe I applied too much? I also buffed it off with a dry towel. Maybe using a wet towel would have made it better. To say I am scared to apply the RainX again, would be an understatement. We had to drive home on the highway through a busy city, 2.5 hr drive. In the bumper to bumper traffic, it was terrible! once at 60mph, it was fine as I did not need to wipe. Thanks

    @@GarageGear I cleaned the window and applied using a microfiber cloth, but maybe it was the cloth I used? I sprayed it on the cloth, wiped one side, sprayed it on the cloth again, and did the other side. Then did a second coat the same way and then dry buffed it off with a new microfiber cloth, same style of cloth. It is not a tight weave cloth, it is a little more fluffy so to speak. So that is why I maybe think it was the cloth?

    Hey Melanin, great question! If you have glass mirrors (on much older vehicles) then the answer would be yes. Most modern vehicles however have plastic mirrors and I’m afraid they will not work on them. I agree not being able to see out your side mirrors is frustrating. A friend of mine tried putting car wax on his mirrors and it left a haze on them so I would also avoid that. Thanks for watching!👍
