I agree with the above.
I've been using it for years & i love it.
Theres nothing better than driving on the motorway in heavy rain with your wiper blades switched off !
it's like playing Wipeout on the PS3!

another wee tip is to clean your wiper blades with the "wet" Rain X'd rag - get all the black crap off the blades.
(I think the AA's radio advert said to use vinegar )
another tip - is to squirt Rain X into your skoosher bottle (no screen wash at all - just water & a 3 second squirt of Rain X)
This keeps the windscreen "topped up"
The Rain X only lasts about 2 weeks
