Doing a super clean of the interior windows regularly from the off gases can “help” with the fog, to a certain degree. Glad to see the rain x de fog works.

You're the next Sham Wow guy! You have to come up with your own product to compete against Rain X.

Awesome results. Another great video. Keep them coming.

Great video, thanks for the Anti-Fog comparo. I showed it to my 90 year old M.D. friend (who still drives) and he is heading to O'Reilly's to pick some up. One thing that you didn't mention for AF: it doesn't work on tinted windows (the aftermarket film tint). As for Rain-X Exterior you are spot-on for the application process. When I remove the haze (which essentially is wax) I like to lightly spray the coated area with water and then use a microfiber towel. One last point: to make your Rain-X exterior application last the longest only use Rain-X washer fluid. The other brands have too much detergent which "cleans" off the Rain-X that you just applied yesterday.

I was watching your CB Radio videos and I have a Motorola XTL or XLT2500 mounted on my dash for the Volunteer Fire Department Im on. Sorry if my typings off im typing from my tablet. Keep the great videos coming, I enjoy them so much!

Great result 👍 I will try it on my 1976 LADA, my car for everyday!

Yep Now I’m interested in trying out the creamic windshield coating and the graphene exterior treatment.

Turtle wax Ceramic/graphene products work very well, especially when you consider the cost.

Rain X window cleaner works well too. We recently drove through snow and rain after applying the original Rain X actually made a huge difference. Thanks!

My 1990 civic hatchback in 1999 engine swap no AC no fan, burnt wires to wipers and rear defogger lol, lived on RainX windshield And RainX Fog, some fun times lol but man it worked so good.

Always great stuff in the HEAVY RAIN AND SNOW. HAVE BEEN USING THIS PRODUCT FOR 25 YEARS🧽🤙✅💯

I prefer aquapel or ombrello over rainx, stays longer. The downside of a repellent product is the cold or rainy morning, your wipers leave a small mist film on the outside when the window is cold. But i prefer the coating though. Its on every car i drive!

I admire your tenacity Jimmy. But your water bucket splash, while visually interesting, is a poor analog for rain, even in TN. Fine spray from a hose nozzle would give you a more accurate picture. I'm surprised you tried the banana and not a raw potato or bar of soap. The rain-ex anti fog will look just like the dish soap and alcohol one in about a week. In Tennessee, window fog is a bigger problem than Cali so I get why you got into this. The best anti-fog for the inside is to just keep it clean. Hope that's a good steamer you used, I just ordered the same one from Amazon yesterday.

Ha! I've been using Rain x from 16yo to the present. I'm 59yo. 43 years. Love it. Great video.

BTW, to get it off, I think ya need kerosene!

What I do with Rain-X is turn the defrost on high during cooler weather. it will flash off quickly. You can also use a damp rag to remove the haze. I have used Rain-X for a very long time its great stuff. At around 35 mph it goes up the windshield no wipers needed.

I'd love to see a test between the Original Rain-X Water Repellant and a high quality Ceramic Coating.

I've always heard that Rain X never works but you've proven differently. But would this work if you use silicon wipers. Plus could Rain X be used on the back window as well. All my windows inside my Camry seem to fog up. I would like to see if the defogger would work on all the windows inside the Camry. Thanks much for your video.

Awesome !

Thanks for these videos! I just picked up some 0000 steel wool at Dollarama for $1.25 and I’m about to head back to Walmart and get the RainX anti-fog, I tried it a couple years ago and it did nothing! so maybe my application was wrong.

A clay bar doesn't clean grease or chemical from the glass, It's designed to remove particles, like metal, dirt, paint overspray, etc. And dumping a bucket of water doesn't duplicate the effect of rain on glass.

That was a great video, I enjoy watching simple fun like this. I use shaving cream as an anti-fog occasionally in the car. I also use it on the bathroom mirror so I can see my face when I shave after jumping out of the hot steamy water. That coating wipes away too so it has to be re-applied after cleaning the mirror.

Shaving cream for the win.

i see what you did there

Any idea about aftermarket tinted windows with fogging?

Rain-x for the win it’s great stuff but how long will it last before reapplying

Would you try a very old water repellent anti fog for scuba masks? It was glycerine

Would you test with a high pressure nozzle on a water hose to duplicate severe rain storms?

Mine would last 3 days. Need to reapply again for next rainy week

does using your windscreen wipers take the rainX off?

How has the rain X held up. How often do you reapply?

Did you ever find out the reason why your spark plug had oil on it from the video you did 3 years ago you did a follow up video about tapping on the motor but you never revealed where the oil on the spark plug was coming from ....im having the issue with the same exact motor thanks

Shaving cream works good

Rain works even when your windshield is wet. It just works.

Since RainX is hydrophobic, I wonder if you can use it on the inside of your doors to prevent them from freezing when it Usually, I use silicone spray or a lithium spray.

Use lithium spray. on the door rubbers.

Shaving Cream works great for anti fogging.

What happens when you use wiper with the windsheild fluid

Dude had an old banana he didn’t wanna eat so he rubbed it on his windshield.

Use "0000" steel wool to clean the windshield first, works for me.

Any follow up on the motorkote?

Some of us motorcyclists know to use a potato as DIY anti-fog for our helmet visor. You literally just cut it open with a curve so you can wipe it all on the inside of your visor.

I used Rain X for about 8 years because I was too cheap to replace wiper motor on my work truck, stuff works great

interesting result

should have tried the reg rainx well on the inside

Jimmy. A Banana??? Areally? I think the Rain-X test on the outside was a success,again. But, lets see how long it last during a rain showr when you have to use the wipers. Just an idea.

I used Rainx , in the UK , when I was working 40ish miles away from home , driving at a nominal 70mph on the M4 motorway , on the inside and outside of my car's screen , in all weathers , in all the hours of the day and night , as I was working shifts . For more than a fortnight after applying Rainx I noticed that I did not have to use the wipers until there was a lot of rain , the water just got pushed off by gravity and wind when there was light rain . I would reapply the product when I noticed my wipers seemed to be slightly less efficient , but it was a gradual reduction and there was a residual benefit for ages if I was lazy in getting round to repeat applying ! The interior Rainx I found not so effective in my car , but then again I used to smoke , horror horror , in the car and that smoke can be seen as a yellow/brown residue on a cleaning rag . A dirty screen , inside I mean , will gather moisture I suppose , so cleaning is needed more regularly than expected . I still would recommend the interior rainx . I would use the interior rainx on the inside of my motorbike visor to great effect as well , products like this should be pointed out for safety reasons when using visors . Never had luck with vegetables or fruits ; would they count as part of your five a day diet ! Lol

Shaving cream works better than FogX

gel or foam?

When it rains it pours. I would’ve liked to see a water hose replicating a rain shower ..

👍👌👏 2) Unfortunately the banana didn't work (I simply love bananas). Maybe a decoction of banana peel would work? Best regards, luck and health in particular.

Shaving foam is also good for antifog.

Jimmy, You should come back to this a few weeks later to see if there are any pros or cons that you discover.

RainX deteriorates quickly. Noticably less good afterva week. Hot sun really cooks it. So what? I love it and recoat when rain is forecast. I've even stay it on during the rain. Spray it on and go. It still works.

@HotRod Ray so what? That is your anecdotal experience. I would like to see Jimmy's long-term experience.

Yeah, best "anti fog" is an absolutely clean windshield. Putting expensive crap on your windshield is like pissing your pants to keep warm.

What about shaving cream

Got me curious about WD-40 as it’s “water displacement”-40 🤔

Nah , but it would probably shift the bugs ! Unless you really love rainbows leave WD off your screen !

Im all fogged up!

Noticed that often u talk like you r about to laugh 😆

Rumors says toothpaste works too as an anti-fogger.

I find it makes the wipers squeak

Not worth buying or using the Anti-Fog as the inside glass as it's so misty after wiping if off ! Even after removing/wiping it off properly the have there will be & is some left....looks so dirty! You need a good coat of it & not use/put too little on the inside. I'm a car cleaner by trade & i would avoid the Anti-Fog. The other Rain-X for the outside is brilliant! Been using it for many years.

Or you could just turn on defrost or park your vehicle in the garage.

Surprised the title wasn’t “WHY YOU SHOULDNT USE RAIN-X.”

Rain-X a product you can swear by not at!

🌴Good Stuff 🦛

Rain-X anti fog is terrible when you put it on the inside of your goggles then again Prestone anti-fog left me just as teary-eyed. But then again that would not be using it right now would it

Banana clearly winner

So this is just a long commercial for rain-x. What utter garbage.

A lot of comments say it is garbage , while others like it ; I wonder if particular local climates effect rainx ? I don't know , but it works in the UK , when we usually only have two weeks of continuous sun once if lucky a year - and then you do not need rainx !

I love RainX but their anti-Fog is Garbage
