Quoted: I ride motorcycles and have put it on my helmet visor and in the rain it worked great much easier to see
|
On my two week cross country motorcycle ride, I put Rainx on two Shoei helmet visors (on my spare too). I had forgotten I had it packed in my tank bag, and we were expecting more rain for the next day..so I thought I would give it a shot. I carefully applied it to clean visors and put a few applications on with a soft cloth. I applied Rainx on my visors only after about the 40% point of my 6,000 mile ride.
It's didn't make a difference in the rain, I still need to turn my head sideways in the rain to clear the visor of water drops. Plus my wet weather gloves had a mini rubber squeegee sewn onto one of the index finger to wipe the visor clear.
I actually think Rainx contributed to ruining a new $50 MIRRORED visor. I switched to my clear visor when it got dark, and the next day, when I switched back to the mirrored visor for riding into the sun, the mirrored coating on the new visor began to flake off small spots here and there.
It didn't do crap for plastic, but it does work well on the car windshield. I used on the cars for years. I don't think that the plasitc visors have those microscopic pores that rainx smooths over for water droplets. It didn't do crap for the plastice visors from Shoei.
