    Bloody bloody Rainex!

    Used Rainex inside a windscreen on drivers side only - no, it didn't stop the steaming up as I thought it would.

    now it looks 'smeary' - and seems to steam up even quicker!

    Tried Pams windw cleaner to get rid of it - no go.

    Tried Dulon thinners - same result.

    Anybody got a cunning plan - apart from smashing the screen?

    BTW: when using cleaner the side wihtout Rainex 'squeaks' - the Rainex side doesn't.

    Did the police tap on your window to see what you were doing to steam your windows up so much?
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    Yeah, I tapped on the window myself!

    What's that alcohol they use to make weed oil?

    Paper towels instead of cloth.

    Failing that, I got nothing.

    Google tells me that lighter fluid is good. It's about the naptha (zippo type fluid).

    Google also tells me that it's a really bad idea to put rain-x inside your windscreen. Sorry, should have told you sooner.

    Saw those mentioned too, but nowhere near as often as the lighter fluid.

    Then again, maybe Scummy could get some confiscated IPA from somewhere?
