foolishly put rain x on my windshield and now visibility is worse!!! and now my wipers hop and drag across glass making noise!!!

how do i get this silcone layer of rain x off? someone said ammonia and lighter fluid??? and I was thinkin of eliminating the passenger side windshield wiper because of the 'groove' it leaves right in fron of my vision path while driving.......

 

wtf? im confused

 

you are suppost to use a lot of water the first time u turn them on..the silicone layer thing is suppost to fall off, ive had mine for 6 months and ive had no problems

 

Dawn soap or a claybar will get rid of it. If that doesn't work, use vinegar.

 

it does it for mine too but my wipers dont do **** anyways. i just use rainx and only put my wipers at the lowest setting when it pours

with rainx i rarely use my wipers

 

If rain-x is put on right, you shouldn't need wipers. Only time is when there's just a mist of water and the drops aren't big enough to get pulled off the glass. I love that stuff.

 

i even used rain-x washer fluid and that was pretty good as well. left a nice film on the windshield and i usually didnt need to use the wipers, and that was on a truck with a much more upright windshield so the cobalt must be so nice.

 

Did you try Invisible Glass and some newspaper?

 

yeah you must of not put the rain x on right.. Rainx is amazing and ill rarely use my wipers once i get a nice layer of rain x on... but when i do they dont miss a spot

 

For real I love this stuff, but how could someone put it on wrong? lol

 

lol just wax your windshield or use the rainx washer fluid and let it do the job for you. I honestly just do both of those. Everytime I wax the car I wax all the windows as well and use the rainx washer fluid.

 

Ya i know regular wax on the windows works good too

 

either not enough or too much.

 

did you wipe it off after you put it on?

not trying to be a douch or anything but i wife put it on and never wiped it off and its was doing the same thing.
