comments: this is the stuff you wipe inside in the windshield to prevent fog, but unlike classic rain-x, you dont have to buff it out. well, i used this and regular rain-x on the outside recently, and i think the pic speaks for itself. the standard rain-x is just fine...100% of these swirls are on the inside. i cant speak for the anti fog ability, but honestly, having swirly fog would suck mightily. they also say on the pack to keep em in your car in case of fog...no, thanks. ill just use my defroster and keep my windshield streak-free on the inside.

you have to buff it like there is no tomorrow, that's why i hate using it.

Instead, rainx is great at removing tree tar on your paint. Try it next time

I used rainx outside once and hated it...But i got some stuff on my windshield from when i worked at lexus...stuff means business...cost 300 bucks for customers..

thing is though...the instructions dont mention buffing with the inside stuff. the outside stuff is fine with a spray bottle of water and lots of buffing, especially after it rains.

i want to try aqua-pel. the dealership will apply it for $20, but im not sure if its all windows or just the windshield.

If you want Rain-X for the outside, get the windshield washer fluid kind. My friend also tried the anti fog crap and he said that it did the same thing, swirly crap.

it rained tonight after being 85 and humid all day...holllllllly crap...when the swirls fog up...

i wish i had more hands, so i could give these things 4 thumbs down :boo:

do they make a de-ice windshield fluid? that would be sweet since i abuse that stuff all winter...scraping ftl :Smoker:

With this product your windshield has to be clean...I used it AFTER I wiped down the inside and it worked for like a month...dunno about your pic but it looks like you had grime on the windshield and put the fog remover on...it does work, but it's annoying that it doesn't last as long as rain-x does...

Yes they do make it in de-icing form. The best way to go about using the washer fluid is clean your windshield really good at the gas station and then use the washer fluid after wards. What they sell on the shelf at the store is ready use and is a de-icing and "bug remover" plus Rain-X. It claims to be good down to -25F.
