Default Quick Question?

I am sure this has been asked before but I will ask anyway. Will Rain-x mees up my windshield? I know it works on cars but was not sure about putting it on my bike windshield didnt know if it would fog it up in anyway. Do any of you use it?

There has been a lot on here about this. RainX is no good for a lexan windshield.

rain X was developed for airplane plastic windshields. i have used it for over 20 years on my bike shield and my eyeglasses. if you are getting haze it's because you aren't buffing it enough when you apply it. theres a bottle in my 2001 RK right now.

Rain X ruins the hard coating on a Harley Windshield. Don't use it. It's not the plastic you are damaging. Harley is the only ones that use the coating. It will start to peel. Been there, Done that.
