Water repellent for windows

[Bluebird]

Just thought I'd report on a really good addition to my (rather too big) detailing collection :<div><br></div><div>H2Go Rain Repellent from Angel Wax. As long as you prep the windscreen well (clay and clean first), this stuff beads at under 30mph. Very small drops - really great.</div><div><br></div><div>http://www.angelwax.co.uk/?wpsc-product=h2go-rain-repellent<br></div><div><br></div><div>Tried many of the popular options in the past but think this is the best thus far - any by far the cheapest decent one. For me, beats the Gtechniq range - my prior favourite.</div><div><br></div><div><img src="http://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/images/converted_files/uploads/376/rain-h2go.jpg" height="393" width="700" border="0" /><br></div><div><br></div><div>(screen capture from my latest toy - a Dashcam .. report to follow once installed professionally!)</div>

Hi Bluebird,<br /><br />Many thanks for the tip re the AngelWax. I used to use RainX but this stuff is less expensive and looks to do a great job so I'll be putting in an order for some. Interested to hear what Dash Cam you got as have been looking at them myself. Trouble is there are so many about with wildly varied prices! I'm after one that's 1080p quality but with a very small discrete footprint so will look forward to your report.<br /><br />Regards.<br /><br />Scoobydoo

It's not very tiny like the Mobius but it is good, cheap and, when mounted in front of the mirror on the passenger side, can't be seen from the driver's seat. There are smaller ones out there but this has a screen so you can replay if really needed without taking the card out and finding a computer. <div><br></div><div>https://joovuu.com/gb/home/196-g90-car-camera.html</div><div><br></div><div>I am arranging for a local auto electrician to hard wire it in. I'll take some photos once done.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>

Mine hasn't seen the damp end of a hose yet, and long may it stay that way...<img src="http://www.ftypeforums.co.uk/images/converted_files/smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" alt="Shift+R improves the quality of this image.

The front is also now covered in suicidal insects.<br /><br />Driving in the wet is quite fun if you can get the rear to slide out a bit.<br /><br />Guess I give it a wash pretty soon.<br /><br />

Hi <div>Just ordered the angle wax H2GO looks good,anyone used any of the wax products from AW.</div><div><br></div>

I used to use some of their wax on my XK's paint protection film. It did not have any petroleum distillates and meant it was safe from yellowing.
