As seen on TV: RainX

Ok most products that are “As seen on TV” are great ideas, they’re just executed poorly. (You can’t cook pasta in a teaspoon of hot water and have it be edible, no matter what the lady says, and a sewing machine that you can hold in your hand shouldn’t be used to sew denim, or Kevlar, again no matter what the lady says!) But RainX isn’t one of the good idea, but bad products; it is as good as advertised if not better. The stuff can be a pain to apply, but it makes turning on your windshield wipers for anything but a heavy rain unnecessary. Plus, bird dropping and bug guts don’t stick (or if it is hot fuse) to the window. So if you’re driving long distance, the bug guts will just wipe off with the gas station squeegee and a little water. Here are a few tips:
RainX has to be applied to very clean windows so clean your windows twice, once to get the heavy crud off, then again to get them spotless. After you apply it says to buff off with a paper towel, well that takes forever, so pour cool clean water on the window and wipe off most of the haze then use a second paper towel to buff it out. The first time you apply it do it twice like it says, but after that once is enough if you keep up with it.

Here are a few words of warning: First don’t freak the first time it rains after you apply the RainX, it is suppose to do that (You’ll understand when you see it). Second, DON’T get RainX on the paint or your wiperblades or anything not made of glass! Third, if you have a crack or a chip in the window that you plan to have repaired or you need any glass work done on your car don’t use RainX, till after the repairs are done or bad things will happen! It doesn’t say that on the bottle but trust me on this one.

Please note: I am not getting any money from the RainX people, and I actually use RainX. However, if the RainX people want to send me money or even a T-shirt I wouldn’t say no. ;)
