laumk7 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Has anyone else used this product? I washed, dried and released my windscreen before application- which it's safe to say is dead straightforward and easy. Even polishing it off after 5 minutes (give or take) was a breeze. But it had its first outing against rain last night and this morning. I was surprised to see it was wet this morning when I left but thought meh let it go it was cold (5°) last night. Operation with the wipers was good this morning no streaking or squeaking, but none of the claimed water repellency claimed so far. My personal verdict is wait and see, it's definitely better at application than rainx and it's better at working with the wipers than rainx too. But for repellency rainx is in the lead so far and of course cost has got to come into it: rainx =£3 duxback =£10 (approx ) the differences speak volumes so far but again we'll have to wait and see Duxback also claims to last 6 months as opposed to rainx , I can't remember off the top of my head but I know it's not that long.. 6/10 so far for ease of application and working with the wipers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Its rebottled rubbish.. to put it politely. I'd recommend Kleen freaks glass cleaner & sealant applied to the glass then mixed with screenwash. Several members have bought this from me and have given positive reviews. OR Gtechniq G1 (I can provide this below RRP) OR inspired automotive Clearview On my website, yorkshiredetailing.co.UK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also makea few false claimssuch as "One application goes a long way. Duxback doesn't just coat your windscreen, it bonds with it, forming a protective repellant barrier that stays on for months. No other product on the market, works like it. or lasts like it." There are tonnes of other products like it.. If not better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
