About this deal

Rain-X Rain Repellent repels rain, sleet and snow from your windscreen, as well as preventing frost, bugs and road spray from sticking to the windscreen as well.

Followed directions sort of, don't know that I went slow enough, but i went over crack twice as directed. The kit works best on round damage not more than one inch in diameter and cracks not longer than 12 inches. Unfortunately I won’t be able to give my own experience as to the long-term longevity of the repair, as the whole windshield is being replaced under insurance this week. Buff off the Rain-X Fog treatment with a dry cloth or a paper towel - ensure you don’t drive until the windscreen is completely clear.Apply with a dry cloth and wipe the Rain-X Rain Repellent in a circular, overlapping motion; once you’ve allowed the product to dry, re-apply again and, once the final coat is dry, remove the final layer with a dry cloth or a sprinkling of water. The repair kit is composed of 1 gram bottle of resin repair, repair device, curing strips, and sleeved razor blade. Unscrew and remove pressure driver from the resin chamber to release any air trapped in the chamber. Else, if you put the center ring centered on the chip itself you may actually be only applying resin to the surface of the windshield and not even touching the actual crack(s). As the resin cures it bonds with the glass and dries in a transparent fashion, meaning that you can see through it like normal glass.

From this point I followed the manufacturer's instruction for attaching the resin chamber, adding drops of resin into it and screwing in the plunger. To use, simply apply either the Rain-X 500ml Trigger Spray or Rain-X 200ml Bottle to your windscreen after cleaning. I honestly didn’t think it would work as well as it did, especially considering that I am not a particularly practical person (i. Since the chip was in a hidden corner of the glass, I was not worried about appearance, but was concerned that water would seep in, then freeze and expand the damage til the windshield needed repalcement. I was a bit apprehensive about trying this product, but after viewing it on Youtube decided to give it a go.I don’t imagine it would work that well at fixing larger cracks and chips (the packaging specifies the maximum repair size, for example 12 inches for cracks). You can also use Rain-X on Shower Doors, or on any glass doors or windows in your home, for more amazing water-beading magic! I am NOT a professional with windshields or the repair thereof so use my suggestions at your own risk. Prior to using this kit, the crack had lengthened by about 5cm during the 1hr drive across the Crown Ranges – I suspect it would have got much worse on the drive home. It is also relatively challenging to get a sufficiently fine flow of the resin from the bottle, due to the small size of the resin bottle and the high flow from the cut nozzle.
