Skinky 1st Gear April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 Hi guys, I'm not sure what to call it, but we know one of the brand is called RainX. Personally, I've tried a number of brands. All are crap. Rain droplets still stick on the window. I have a privacy glass, and somehow, the chemical doesn't seem to wipe on properly on the glass. But water sticks on it very well. I've used rain x, causes all my wiper to judder. I used this japanese brand (some orange and black bottle) which also doesn't seem to work. Autobacs sells SOOOO many different sorts! Anyone can input their experience ?? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galantspeedz Turbocharged April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 rain X is effective but downside is can't use your wiper. so usually people will apply it on all mirrors with no wipers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafansu Turbocharged April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 i'm using rainx , quite good, last very long also, but feedback is that if u apply to front windscreen your wiper will be jumpy, but so far i dont have this problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galantspeedz Turbocharged April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 u apply not enough? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgecheng Neutral Newbie April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 Yup, just use on your side window, mirror and rear glasses. Your wiper can do the work on raining day, this way u will not have wiper jumping and u have clear view from the rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Try_conti 2nd Gear April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 Agree, rain-x good for all glass area except those that have wipers. So, if you drive hatchback & the back comes with rear wiper too, best not to put anything on the glass there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Clutched April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 but if already applied rainX, how to remove it ah? my wipers jump alot... wunder why the previous set didnt jump. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgecheng Neutral Newbie April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 I heard before can use alcohol or vinegar to clear off, but i never tried that before, cause never apply x-rain in front. Maybe u try on one corner first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silhoutte Clutched April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 Yeah i agree. I apply rainX on my side windows and side mirrors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Try_conti 2nd Gear April 5, 2007 Share April 5, 2007 Do a search in mcf. I think its using some form of chemical (can't remember what name). Other than that, let it judder until it stops. Mine judder like crazy for a few months last year during the rainy season and i learnt my lesson - NEVER APPLY IT TO WINDSCREEN WITH WIPERS ! It gradually starts to judder less & less until it doesn't judder anymore now. Also observed that the water beading effect on the windscreen is gone. Who cares as long as my wiper can clear water I happy liao .... now i only apply on the sides & rear (my rear has no wiper). ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
