A MUST For Winter Driving

karl_683 · 6th October 2009, 09:26

I've just tried Carlack Nanotech Glass sealant. They say that it helps water just roll of the glass and it really does! I've had it on for a couple of weeks now and this morning is this first time its rained since.

The water just beads off as you go along, I hardly had to use my wipers! This will be really good when the weather gets worse!

Its a bit of a job to put on (if you leave it on to long without buffing

) but its well worth the effort.

I don't work for them btw

Without reading up on it, I'm guessing it's a similar product to Rain X. Which I've been using for the past 14 years or so. I swear by it.

Me too I have been using Rain X also for a number of years and have had no complaints

Rain X is amazing.. It's the only way to stop the water from ruining the rear view in my opinion.. I really wish they had installed rear wipers..

I do find Rain X can be a pain if it's lightly raining as it often looks more like mist on the window that rain.. So I still have to put the wipers on. However in medium rain it's fantastic and really comes into it's own.

Rian X.... how do you put it on as i see it only comes in 200ml bottles. how long will that amount last, and how ofter do you put in on. thinking of using it on my crash helmet visor to.

Another use for RainX is on Velux windows if you have any

Another must for Winter is an FBH

Rain X is brilliant on a crash helmet visor.
Also Bob Heath anti fog on the inside.
