Hi Dave, yes it's the best stuff to use on your windows. I have been using it for over 25 years now, I swear by it. It was one of the first things I did when my QQ was washed, was to rainex the windows.I do it every 6 months , before Winter and Summer . Peter

Hi Dave, it's not the cleaner you want it's the Original glass water repellent . The cleaner may be ok, but I have never tried that particular product. If you do get the version you said , then let' know what it's like. Peter

Peter, I believe you are correct from what I can remember back in the Old Days this is the one I used, but never mind it is ordered (Post Strike at present) so when I get it I will give it a try. But remember it is summer here 30A°C + and we also get some sun, but no Rain to test it - Dave https://www.rainx.com/product/glass-wat ... ZKAO3BXerU

Peter, the Rain-x was delivered but was damaged and leaking and has now been replaced by Amazon. I have given the QQ a once over and here are a couple of pics of the effect when stationary. It worked well at the Weekend when raining as the wet stuff has returned . For me the effect is no different to the Original Rain-x - Dave

Hi Dave, that is the effect that I would have expected. Mine looks exactly the same. I don't know what you were expecting ,as I haven't seen the Rain-x you are talking about. I have only seen the original version.Peter
