I know it's not as good as some options but I've been running it for the last few years with good results that is until I got my windshield replaced on the '97 Ranger... don't know what it is but the rainex doesn't work for beans and I have to use my wipers which is annoying...
I don't know how long I'd had that bottle but with the old windshield the rainex worked fine but doesn't with the new window... I imagine it's some coating they put on it, when it's wiped it's super clear but that doesn't help at all when it's raining like heck and I can't see even with the wipers on full blast...
So I've had thoughts about going at the windshield with some Acetone and a clean rag to try to get whatever off of it but figured I'd ask for other thoughts since I haven't managed to try that theory in the last couple months...
