Visor wiping questions

[DrunkenMistake]

Maybe this is in the wrong section,
But here in Dunedin its been real crummy and hasnt been raining heavily but it has been spitting heavily if that makes sense, I found I can wipe my visor with the small patch on the left thumb of my gloves, but I have to do it every 2 mins and after a while it stops working due to the amount of water on my glove, I found lifint my visor up a smidgen was enough to clear the water and give me some sight back, but the moment it closed the rain ran down the inside, which leaves me here,
Is there any kinda of product that you can get/use to prevent rain build up on your Visor? I have some of that Rain clean gel that you use on windscreens but I dont want to use something that will mess up my anti fog visor (not a pin lock), that or any tips in the way of clearing my visor without it building up in the centre of my vision etc.

And yes before someone says it, Riding in the rain is a must as my bike is my mode of daily transport, Cheers guys

Pledge is your friend, the water just beads off....true.
Helmet smells like granny's rocking chair but whats wrong with that?..

There really is nothing that works ... for long. Just keep turning your head from side to side and most will blow off the side. At slow speed or stopped ... use the whole of your back hand ... you'll get most, or at least enough to see where you're going ...

I use rainex, but in this drizzly shit we are having at the moment, riding around town i still have to wipe every few mins.Just a part of the whole experience i guess.

I have solid plastic knuckles on the back of my glove,

I will try the pledge, what type or just general pledge?

Yah, its ok going home because I live out of town and I need to take a 2 lane road that is long sweeping twisties, so I tend to do 100 and I have no problem, but if you get stuck behind a cage, worse off a camper van, then there is absolutly no winning haha, and there are so many places you can pass if you have balls (in the dry and sun) but only a few in the wet especially when your already blinded by water haha

Like the man says, Pledge is good.

You used to be able to get a rubber wiper that fitted on your forefinger, worked quite well.

PS: use the spray can. Orange works just as well.

Take you visor off, pledge it, then slowly run water over it, see how it works.
Shower is best to simulate rain..

Some gloves have a chamois like material on the outside lefthand fore finger.

Haven't seen that. I tried wrapping some cricket bat handle towling type tape on me finger. Better than nothing but not by much.

I use 'Plexus". Not cheap, but very effective.
I wash and dry my visor, then spray with Plexus, and buff up.
It also fixes light scratches.
It has the same effect as Rain-X, but I am led to believe Rain-X makes Perspex brittle. Plexus is made for Perspex.

It also reduces internal fogging.
