Rain prep

[wiredgeorge]

I bought the new Rain X and it works great, but, my experience was that it's a bit difficult to get it wiped off so that it's clear. Well worth the effort. Another thing I use is car wash with wax, eliminates the need for rain x , water beads up and blows off. Also, it's not a bad idea to look over the windshield, especially in the rain.

I have found that in a torrential downpour you have to be going a certain speed for water to blow up and off the windscreen. If you are going 30 mph, best be looking over the windshield. I ride with an open face helmet and wear glasses (usually sun glasses) and have to take them off and squint through the rain.

Got caught in a heavy rain storm yesterday. What is the best way to treat windshield and helmet visor? Couldn't see a damn thing. Will RainX hurt the windshield?

You can use RainX . But you must clean the windshield or visor, then use Meguiar's PlastX, after buffing let the PlastX dry for 20 minutes, then put the RainX on a rag (just moistion) and let the rag sit for 5 minutes. then apply and buff. I just got rained on Friday and had no problem seeing. If you need any further information PM me. That's IMHO.
