Quick question for you all...

[Zippy]

I got a Ford magazine through the post today, it's got this advert for Duxback, some revolutionary glass treatment, that claims to bead up, rain, sleet and snow, making it roll off. I was wondering if anyone's had this done to their car?? and if you think it's a good idea? or is it simply no better than RainX? I don't know how much Duxback costs, I'm thinking more than RainX, lol.

Ive got Duxback on my windscreen and its grate.

The best thing was that I got it done for free. :P

It does make a difference. It improves your visibility. When you drive a puma you have to make the most of what windows that you've got!!! When I'm driving over 50mph I don't need my wipers on. the rain just beads straight off.

So how did you get it for free then and any idea what the RRP is for it?

or a much better idea.

put some of your standard car wax on your windows aswell and it will do the same thing and lost longer :)

Just thinking about this one - if you have decent wipers why would you wantt his - surely it is not safe to drive along without your windscreen wipers when it is raining. And also, with the Titanium models, you get auto wipers anyway . . . .

it was developed for cars without rear windscreen wipers.

their rear windows use to get dirty from all the rain so they claimed putting this on would mean u can see out of it all the time.

which is true, for a while.

its not great on the front windscreen as i can become abit sticky if your Wiper Blades go over it sometimes

A friend of mine works in the trade and he did it for me.

I think that it cost £20 and lasts for 6 months.

I actually have done this, using Greased Lightning Showroom Shine, was by accident, but I thought what the hell.. and surprisingly it did work well, it beaded up the rain!

I also use a car shampoo with a built in wax, for when I'm feeling too lazy to polish it, lol.

I think I'll be giving Duxback a miss! I don't really need it anyway, it'd seem, lol.

Thanks all for your help with this matter. :)
