I use the rain-x windshield wiper fluid and think it's awesome. I forget to turn my windshield wipers on when it's raining it does such a good job.

I do oil changes on a lot of vehicles for family and friends. I always fill them up with rain-x wiper fluid. I always get a call asking, "What did you put on my windshield, it's awesome!"

Love the stuff put it on all my glass windows (not on soft top windows). I do it basically everytime i wash it (thats very often), I dont even need wipers. I also run the windshield solvent to.

I've tried using Rain-X on previous vehicles. No doubt it works well for water beading in light rain, however when I do need the wipers I've always had hazing as the wipers go across the windshield which drives me crazy. I've even tried changing wipers and cleaning pollutants off the windshield.
