FYI, you can use any hybrid ceramic on your glass and on any black plastic for a long lasting hydrophobic result - i've almost stopped using trim stuff on my plastics now as the hybrid ceramic looks just as nice and lasts longer, and, more importantly, isn't affected by water like many trim products are.
Giving this stuff a shot: I’ve never tried anything like this, so curious if it helps any. I did my truck and my wife’s Edge.
Let us know how well it holds up. I’ve used regular Rain-X products in the past and have enjoyed them. Having heavy rain water sheet off of the windshield without having the wipers on or just on low really helps with visibility in the rain.
I have a new windshield, so I am looking for something like this or another ceramic product to it coat it with.
Um, depends how much time i have, but there isn't much difference in the hybrid ceramics that i can really tell - i typically use Bilt Hamber stuff, they have a spray-application ceramic coating called touch-on - i just pour the packet into my foam lance and top with water, and apply like a snow foam and rinse off, all done.
Crap. I found a couple tiny little chips I’d like to have filled and had wondered exactly that about the RainX.
“Lasts up to 6 weeks” so maybe I consider that before another coat goes on. And I mean the smallest of chips, probably small enough to not mess with even.
I’ve used rain X on all of my windshields for years. I’ve never had a problem with a chip. They just have to clean the glass where the chip is really well. But if I was getting a chip fixed, I’d probably wait to apply till after.
I tried those rain X wipers on my old F150 and they streaked fast and didn’t last.
I’ve had good luck on my 17’ using the high end Anco and Trico blades I get from rock auto. I replace them yearly and they never streak by the time they get replaced.
Ran Bosch Icons for years but they seem to skip and stutter when used with Rain X.
I went to Ford after work, it’d take a week or so to get it in (maybe). I’d like to use a Motorcraft sensor, $48 on Rock Auto, about $51 at Ford.
I left Ford and was going to Discount Tire when suddenly it worked again 🤷🏻♂️ but after a couple stops and nearly making it home, it quit again. I’m sure it’s probably just dying and needs replaced.
