Our tester left the rainfly to dry for about 48 hours before testing it, and, voila, the treated item was vastly improved in terms of how well the water beaded off it. We’ll add this product to our toolkit and apply it at least once a season—ideally in the early spring before the first camping trips of the year—to help preserve some of our most expensive items. All you need is a little bit of soap and water. Simply mix them together and apply to your lenses. It’s that easy! We recommend the Rain-X Plastic Water Repellent for use on any plastics, including motorcycle and boat windscreens. If you’re absolutely fanatical about keeping your windscreen clear, Dodo Juice will be worth the time and care needed to apply it. First you’ll need to prepare the glass with a special shampoo, then it needs to be clayed, polished and cleaned with an IPA glass cleaner. Then, it’s two coats of the solution, applied with a cloth, and a buff down. You’ll need to leave it to cure for around three hours, but you’ll need to undertake this process far less often than most other products. Dodo Juice claims six months of protection, and it was still working very well at the end of our test. It’s expensive, but it certainly delivers results. EnduroShield Auto Glass Wipe

Longevity and effectiveness are the two main factors for choosing one of these windscreen rain repellents, and we think you get what you put in with Dodo Juice’s Supernatural Glass Sealant Kit. It takes the most effort to apply but produced the best results in our test. Second place goes to EnduroShield, while Meguiar’s finished third.

Glass is made of silicon and oxygen atoms with an occasional exposed “OH” or “hydroxyl group”. This hydroxyl group has a strong polarity because oxygen is electronegative. This polarity is similar to that of water, making the water chemically attracted to the glass. This attraction is why water doesn’t naturally roll off of glass.

Many items require at least 24 to 48 hours of time to dry before you can use them again, so planning ahead before a big trip is crucial. Give it a try next time your glasses start to fog up and let us know how it works for you! Waterproof Glasses for Swimming Since you’re applying to cloth items, you shouldn’t expect an utterly waterproof item. Though the product doesn’t last as long as some others, it was still very effective in our test, causing water to bead up and stream away until it wears off. Once it does, you can simply reapply the wax.Avoid using the Rain‑X® Rain Repellent on plastic shower doors, glass shower doors with etching or frosting, plexiglass and fibre glass, plastic surfaces, including motorcycle windshields, ATVs and solar panels. If you wear glasses, then you know that one of the most annoying things is when they fog up. You can’t see and it’s just frustrating. But there’s no need to buy an expensive anti-fog solution – you can make your own at home!

After this, Gtechniq recommends not letting the glass get wet for 12 hours, but the end results will be 20,000 miles of hydrophobic protection, by far the best out of any rain repellents we've seen.

While G1 is extremely long-lasting, Gtechniq is honest in mentioning that there is a trade-off between longevity and effectiveness when creating these formulas. Gtechniq admits that by making their G1 product last so long, it did lose some of its water-shedding properties. So if you want maximum water repellency but diminished product life, they point you to their Gtechniq G5. This only lasts 3 to 6 months but is more effective at shedding water, especially at lower speeds. Keep your shower, windows and glass doors shining and clean with this incredible Rain-X Rain Repellent product.
